Modernity as Detour: Aby Warburg and the Kyoto School From a cancelled 1896 voyage to Yokohama to the 1942 “Overcoming Modernity” symposium, Xinyi Wen traces how Warburg’s ideas travelled into twentieth century Japanese debates on modernity.

New blog post: “Modernity as Detour: Aby Warburg and the Kyoto School” by Xinyi Wen.

From Warburg’s unrealised Japan trip (1896) to Renaissance astrology in Japan’s modernity debates (1942).

“Adjustment” is the name given by A. #Crowley to this #Tarot card previously known as #Justice.

To see the scales as kinetic, serves to show that justice is active.

I recently took this picture of one of the original paintings for his #thoth deck at the #warburginstitute in London.

#WarburgInstitute #tarot exhibition. Seems slightly unsure if it is about the history of tarot cards, the specific cards or the collection. It seems Death is a Yorkshireman warburg.sas.ac.uk/events/tarot...

The act of adjustment. We all need some of that from time to time. Truly stunning artwork, colour and level of detail. #FriedaHarris #WarburgInstitute #Adjustment

From secret societies to Selfridges: the eccentric geniuses responsible for the macabre world of tarot A new exhibition shows how, over the centuries, the cards went from courtly novelty to occultish tool of divination – and the way in which the art form is still evolving

"This original Harris painting was given to the Warburg Institute by Crowley’s executor and is exhibited in the UK for the first time since her death in 1962.."
