Through his study of images, the historian Aby Warburg (1866–1929) coined the term Pathosformel, which he defined as ‘charged visual figures’: specific gestures, postures, or expressions that recur across time. Warburg noticed that these visual figures return to us as concentrated signals of suffering, fear, or ecstasy: motifs that operate as sites where cultural memory stores and releases its accumulated force...

Ageless, Ageless proposes artworks, exhibitions, writings, and collective studies that treat memory and presence as forms of continuity: not to rhyme with or repeat the past, but to remain continually informed by it.
