Panel 45. Video Commentaries

“Superlatives of the language of gestures. Over-exuberance of self-consciousness. Individual heroes emerging out of the typological grisaille. Loss of the ‘how of metaphor.’” Translated from: Aby M. Warburg, Der Bilderatlas: Mnemosyne. Gesammelte Schriften II.1. Ed. Martin Warnke and Claudia Brink. Berlin: Akademie Verlag, 2008. P. 82.
