Architectural models are used at various stages of a project. As working models they support the design process: they are made up from time to time using simple materials, such as cardboard, without any attempt at accuracy, and continue to be adjusted and added to as the ideas and the design progress. The point here is to swiftly check a design idea, to allow it to be continued or dismissed. Presentational models are more involved; at this stage the design has been completed and the purpose of the model is to convey the ideas to the potential user in a clear and easy-to-understand way. The book Architecture and Model Building includes outstanding examples explaining the possibilities of this medium and, at the same time, provides comprehensive information on materials and techniques.

Eduardo Chillida is considered the most important Spanish sculptor of the second half of the 20th century. His monumental, site-specific sculptures of steel, stone and concrete are now iconic pieces. They include, for example, the work "Peine del viento" (Wind Comb) from 1976, mounted on three cliffs in his hometown San Sebastian and his steel sculpture "Berlin" from 1999 which is situated in front of the Federal Chancellery in Berlin. Taking in around 130 works, some of them large-format, the catalogue honours all the aspects and creative phases of Chillida's oeuvre and accompanies the most comprehensive exhibition of his work in Germany to date. Exhibition: Museum Wiesbaden, Germany (16.11.2018 - 10.03.2019).

"The sculptures of Bodys Isek Kingelez (1948–2015) are imagined architectural propositions and improbable structures for a fairytale urban landscape. Comprised of paper, commercial packaging and the stuff of everyday life, his “extreme maquettes” transform these materials into fantastic visions that encompass civic buildings, public monuments and private pavilions. Born in the Belgian Congo, Kingelez gained international renown following his participation in the landmark 1989 exhibition Magiciens de la Terre at Centre Georges Pompidou and the Grande Halle of the Parc de la Villette, and since that time, his work has been included in numerous global surveys and in several solo presentations. Published to accompany the first retrospective of his work, this volume traces the span of Kingelez’s three decade career, from never-before-exhibited early works to sculptures that launched his career in 1989 and the complex and multifaceted cities of later decades, bringing his rarely seen, distinctive oeuvre to international audiences. Featuring stunning new photography of his work, this serves as the most comprehensive volume on the artist to date. Sarah Suzuki is Curator of Drawings and Prints at the Museum of Modern Art, New York."
