<br/><br/>Introduction -- The model as object and idea -- Staging politics and knowledge through the model -- Performing architecture: Edward Gordon Craig and the model stage -- Staging the future: the model as performance of inhabitation -- Performing the past: the full-scale model and mock up -- Staging the white cube: the autonomous model as a performance of space. 
<br/><br/> "'The model as performance' investigates the history and development of the scale model from the Renaissance to the present. Employing a scenographic perspective and a performative paradigm, it explores what the model can do and how it is used in theatre and architecture. The volume 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.  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."--Cover.
