Dia-Projektion mit freiem Vortrag. Warburg und der Mythos von Kreuzlingen

Author(s): Despoix, Philippe

Abstract

Aby Warburg's famous talk held 1923 in the Kreuzlinger Sanatorium Bellevue was not a ‹lecture› illustrated with photographs but rather a projection of slides on which, according to concurring reports of people present, the scholar commented freely and partly improvised. Even if the oral presentation is gone, the glass slides that were the basis of his ‹performance› have been largely preserved. Those circumstances, which touch on the relationship between image and speech as well as on the specific medial function of the projection–and thus touching on Warburg's visual anthropological approach–will be subject here to detailed analysis.
