International congress. March 4 - 5, 2011
Nouvel Building, Auditorium 400
For this international congress, experts on the history and theory of the
image have been invited to come together to debate the repercussions of
Warburg’s project on knowledge and critical interpretation of contemporary
visual culture.The seminar is divided into four roundtables that attempt to
interrogate the historical and intellectual coordinates of Warburg’s project,
and then to discuss the primary questions about the nature of the image
formulated in Atlas Mnemosyne that resonate in current debates.
Participants:
Javier Arnaldo, Jesús Carrillo, Lorraine Daston, Georges Didi-Huberman,
Aurora Fernández Polanco, Christian Jacob, Juan José Lahuerta, PhilippeAlain Michaud, Keith Moxey, Matthew Rampley, Elena Tavani, Sigrid
Weigel and Claudia Wedepohl.
Offered for one academic credit at Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Universidad
Carlos III, Universidad Complutense y Universidad Rey Juan Carlos.
