Warburg models : buildings as bilderfahrzeuge
Architectural patronage was crucial for the thinking of Aby Warburg and his circle. In Hamburg the Kulturwissenschaftliche Bibliothek Warburg, completed in 1926, organised Warburg's remarkable library. From 1927 Warburg developed ideas about orientation in the radical transformation of a disused water tower into the Hamburg Planetarium. After the Warburg Institute transferred to London in 1933 this pattern of seminal architectural commissioning continued, including projects designed by the avant-garde practice Tecton during the 1930s, and culminating in the construction of the library's present home at Woburn Square, Bloomsbury in 1958. This book follows this history, using archive photographs, architectural drawings and a series of architectural models.
