As a project compiling European cultural history through the medium of images from a cultural memory research perspective, German art historian/Bildwissenschaftler Aby Warburg(1866-1929)’s ‘Mnemosyne Atlas’ is a repository of image anthropology and a contemporary reference point. The act of creation and interdisciplinary research through the medium of images goes beyond the genre-convergent experiments of the arts, expanding as Bildwissenschaft(Image-science), the intersection of natural science and the humanities. In answer to this contemporaneous trend, for the first time in South Korea, we are opening an archive exhibition consisting of exhibitions by Korean artists as well as panel exhibitions and a forum introducing the 63 Image Atlas panels that we have acquired from the Warburg Institute.
