    Résumé

    The Model as Performance investigates the history development of the scale model from the Renaissance to the present. Employing a scenographic perspective and a performative paradigm, it expolres what the model can do and how it is used in theatre and architecture. The volume provides a comprehensive historical context and theoretical framewoerk 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.
    Introducing a typology of the scale model beyhond the iterative and 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.
