Architectural Models in a New Light

There’s a new book a new book out from the University of Chicago Press called The Architectural Model: Tool, Fetish, Small Utopia, edited by Peter Cachola Schmal and Oliver Elser. It’s authors assert that the model hasn’t been explored as an artistic medium in its own right. In 2009, The Deutsches Architekturmuseum (DAM) began to fill in this gap in architectural scholarship, focusing on the history of the model with particular attention paid to the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Drawing on the museum’s vast collection of models, comprised of more than 1,200 objects created by over four hundred architects from around the world, the researchers and authors created both this book and a corresponding exhibit that opened in May.
