The Model as Performance investigates the history and development
of the scale model from the Renaissance to the present from a
scenographic perspective and a performative paradigm that explores
what the model can do and how it is used in theatre and
architecture. It provides a comprehensive historical context and
theoretical framework for theatre scholars, scenographers, artists
and architects interested in the model's reality-producing capacity
and its recent emergence in contemporary art practice and
exhibition. For the undergraduate student, it provides a historical
survey of the model, and to the postgraduate student, it opens up a
new methodological approach. Introducing a typology of the scale
model beyond the iterative and the representative model, the
authors identify the autonomous model as a provocative construction
between past and present, idea and reality that challenges and
redefines the relationship between object, viewer and environment.
Case studies include Brunelleschi's dome models and Bel Geddes'
Futurama, Mies van der Rohe's mock ups and Zumthor's atmospheric
models, Anna Viebrock's life size boxes and Herzog & de
Meuron's miniature styrofoam exhibits. The Model as Performance was
shortlisted for the best Performance Design & Scenography
Publication Award at the Prague Quadrennial (PQ) 2019.
