{"product_id":"17973-leibniz-lager","title":"Leibniz’s Storehouse","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat would it have looked like, Leibniz\u0026rsquo;s Storehouse? What kinds of objects would the polymath have stored in a chamber of curiosities of his own? The artists Renate Heyne and Floris Neus\u0026uuml;ss play with the idea of what might have happened, had Leibniz been able to realize his dream of a collection of objects and artifacts, and had begun to archive everything in a warehouse. Leibniz\u0026rsquo;s Warehouse, however, is not simply a collection of manifest objects. The artists have created a kind of \u0026ldquo;theater of nature and art\u0026rdquo; in the form of photograms, as they journeyed through the collections of fifteen different museums, photographing their exhibits from nature, antiquity, science, and art. Photograms are the result of a direct photocopying process in which images appear when photosensitive material is directly exposed to light. Animals, sculptures, or plants look like positive shadows in this catalogue, inviting readers to tour the history of collections in Western European museums such as the Alte Nationalgalerie Berlin and the Tinguely Museum Basel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith photograms of exhibits from the following museums:\u003cbr \/\u003e\n\u0026nbsp;\u003cbr \/\u003e\nGlyptothek, Munich\u003cbr \/\u003e\nBavarian National Museum, Munich\u003cbr \/\u003e\nMuseum of Ethnology, Munich\u003cbr \/\u003e\nGerman Museum, Munich\u003cbr \/\u003e\nMathematical Institute at the Technical University, Munich\u003cbr \/\u003e\nOld National Gallery, Berlin\u003cbr \/\u003e\nEgyptian Museum, Berlin\u003cbr \/\u003e\nBode Museum, Berlin\u003cbr \/\u003e\nGerman History Museum, Berlin\u003cbr \/\u003e\nBauhaus Archiv, Berlin\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp;\u003cbr \/\u003e\nBerlinische Galerie, Berlin\u003cbr \/\u003e\nKolbe Museum, Berlin\u003cbr \/\u003e\nMathematical Institute at the University of Halle\u003cbr \/\u003e\nTinguely Museum, Basel\u003cbr \/\u003e\nFribourg Museum of Natural History\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'\"\u003eExhibition: ZKM | Zentrum f\u0026uuml;r Kunst und Medien, Karlsruhe, 11.12.2016\u0026ndash;5.3.2017\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44874865803528,"sku":"9783775742306","price":15.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775742306_f645fcd5-4410-4fbb-8422-37787f6fa328.jpg?v=1744110874","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/17973-leibniz-lager","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
