Paperback. Condition: New. While completing the Almannajuvet Zinc Mine Museum in southern Norway in 2016, celebrated Swiss architect Peter Zumthor asked Norwegian scholar Mari Lending to engage in a dialogue about the project. Departing from the ways in which Zumthor's pavilions frame the barely visible traces of the industrial exploitation of zinc in the 1890s, the conversation took unexpected turns.In meandering, impressionistic style and drawing on Zumthor's favourite writers, such as Johann Peter Hebel, Stendhal, Vladimir Nabokov, and T.S. Eliot, their exchanges explore how history, time and temporalities reverberate across the famous architect's oeuvre. Looking back, Zumthor ponders on how a feeling of history has informed his continuous attempts of emotional reconstruction by means of building, from architectural interventions in dramatic landscapes to his design for the redevelopment of Los Angeles' LACMA on a grand urban scale.This small, beautifully designed new book records the conversation between Zumthor and Lending, illustrated with photographs by the renowned Swiss architectural photographer Helene Binet.

In Hamburg the purpose-designed Kulturwissenschaftliche Bibliothek Warburg, completed in 1926, organized Warburg's remarkable library. From 1927 Warburg developed ideas about orientation in the radical transformation of a disused water tower into the Hamburg Planetarium.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neu -Im Denken Aby Warburgs und seines Kreises spielte die Architektur eine besondere Rolle. 1926 wurde ein eigens für die Kulturwissenschaftliche Bibliothek Warburg entworfenes Gebäude fertiggestellt und nur kurze Zeit später war Warburg maßgeblich an der radikalen Transformation eines stillgelegten Wasserturms in ein Planetarium für Hamburg beteiligt. Auch nach der Emigration des Warburg-Instituts nach London 1933, setzte sich dieses Muster der architektonischen Auftragsvergabe in der Zusammenarbeit mit der Avantgarde-Gruppe Tecton und schließlich 1958 im Bau des heutigen Gebäudes der Bibliothek am Woburn Square in Bloomsbury fort. »Warburg Models. Buildings as Bilderfahrzeuge« geht dieser Geschichte nach und zeigt anhand von Archivfotos, Architekturzeichnungen und einer Reihe von Architekturmodellen, wie die Gelehrten um Warburg eine Verbindung zwischen ihrer eigenen Aneignung und Ausgestaltung des architektonischen Raums sowie zu ihren gemeinsamen Vorstellungen von intellektueller Ordnung und kulturellem Fortleben herstellten. Mari Lending und Tim Anstey sind Professoren an der Oslo School of Architecture and Design. Ihr Seminar zum Verhältnis von Warburg-Schule und Architektur auf der Grundlage von Archivmaterial hat sich - nicht zuletzt wegen der engagierten Beteiligung der modellbauenden Studierenden - zu einem Ausstellungs- und Buchprojekt weiterentwickelt. (Text engl.) 87 pp. Englisch.
