Este livro \u00e9 uma biblioteca. As imagens s\u00e3o pequenas sele\u00e7\u00f5es de imagens de um cat\u00e1logo documentando as perdas da Gem\u00e4ldegalerie no Museu Kaiser Friedrich, o Museu Bode atual, em Berlim durante e ap\u00f3s a Segunda Guerra Mundial. A Gem\u00e4ldegalerie perdeu mais de quatrocentas pinturas, a cole\u00e7\u00e3o de escultura do museu perdeu cerca de um ter\u00e7o de seu acervo. A documenta\u00e7\u00e3o fotogr\u00e1fica e os moldes de gesso permanecem como ecos fantasm\u00e1ticos do que havia l\u00e1. A maioria das perdas ocorreu poucos dias antes e depois do fim da guerra, em maio de 1945, quando dois inc\u00eandios devastadores na torre de fuzis de Friedrichshain destru\u00edram a maioria das principais obras de arte que haviam sido armazenadas l\u00e1 para ficarem em seguran\u00e7a. A causa dos inc\u00eandios nunca foi explicada e tornou-se lenda. As pinturas a que se referem essas imagens estavam guardadas. Depois da fuma\u00e7a, pensamos nesta biblioteca de livros desconhecidos.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This book is a library. The images in it are tiny selections from pictures in a catalogue documenting the losses of the Gem\u00e4ldegalerie at the Kaiser Friedrich Museum, the present-day Bode Museum, in Berlin during and after World War II. The Gem\u00e4ldegalerie lost over four hundred paintings, the sculpture collection at the museum lost about a third of its holdings. Photographic documentation and plaster casts remain as ghostly echoes of what was once there. The majority of losses occurred in the days just before and after the end of the war in May 1945 when two devastating fires in the Friedrichshain flak tower destroyed most of the major works of art that had been stored there for safekeeping. The cause of the fires was never explained and has become the subject of legend. Trapped in there were the paintings these images refer to. Out of the smoke we think up this library of unknown books.<\/p>\n
