Aby Warburg 150 - Work and Legacy13 - 15 juin 2016Date limite d’inscription : 05/06/2016On 13-15 June 2016, the Warburg Institute celebrates the 150th anniversary of the birth of Aby Warburg. At the centre of this commemoration we are holding a conference dedicated to his work and heritage. It will reclaim the centrality of Warburg’s thought and vision not only for the London Institute but for the world of international scholarship. A large group of distinguished scholars will discuss the implications of his thought for the history of art, images and cultures. The aim will be not only to illuminate the past, but to reveal the potential of his writings for the debate about contemporary cultural differences as well.Organisers: David Freedberg and Claudia Wedepohl (Warburg Institute)Speakers: Andreas Beyer (Basel), Horst Bredekamp (Humboldt University Berlin), Robert Darnton (Harvard), Lorraine Daston (Max Planck Institute for the History of Science, Berlin), Georges Didi-Huberman (EHESS, Paris), Frank Fehrenbach (Hamburg), Uwe Fleckner (Hamburg), Kurt Forster (Yale), David Freedberg (Warburg Institute), Carlo Ginzburg (Scuola Normale Superiore, Pisa), Christopher Johnson (Bilderfahrzeuge Project, Warburg Institute), Philippe-Alain Michaud (Pompidou Centre), Peter Miller (Bard Graduate Center, New York), WJT Mitchell (Chicago), Ulrich Raulff (Deutsches Literaturarchiv Marbach), Elisabeth Sears (Michigan), Salvatore Settis (Scuola Normale Superiore, Pisa), Quentin Skinner (Queen Mary), Anke te Heesen (Humboldt University Berlin), Martin Warnke (Hamburg), Marina Warner (Oxford and Birkbeck), Claudia Wedepohl (Warburg Institute), Sigrid Weigel (Centre for Literary and Cultural Research Berlin and TU Berlin) and Cornelia Zumbusch (Hamburg)Venue: UCL Institute of Education, Jeffery Hall, 20 Bedford Way, London WC1H 0ALRegistrationAttendance at the conference will be free of charge. Pre-registration is required at: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/aby-warburg-150-work-and-legacy-tickets-21057161537
