This conference examines the question of the migration of images, forms and ideas in the context of the metaphor ›Bilderfahrzeuge‹ (vehicles of/for images), coined by the cultural theorist Aby Warburg (1866–1929). It is the first major opportunity for the international research group ‘Bilderfahrzeuge. Warburg’s Legacy and the Future of Iconology’ to introduce itself to a wider public and to initiate a broader academic dialogue. Papers by invited external speakers will complement those by members of the research group.
