EN

The research conducted by Warburg coincides with the birth of the cinema. That which at first glance appears to be shared by the two phenomena is the question of a presentation of motion. Warburg’s interest in the depiction of the body in motion was connected with his obsession with something that could be described as the “life of images”. He was the first to become aware of the fact that images transmitted by historical memory are not immobile but lead a peculiar life, which he called posthumous life and survival.
