display depot architecture models
Architectural models have a special aesthetic appeal. They fascinate with their vividness, their variety of materials and their visionary power. Even in the digital age, they have by no means lost their significance as a three-dimensional working tool, competition entry or presentation object in architectural practice. Within research, they are a source of enduring relevance.
Exclusive insights into the Akademie der Künste’s outstanding collection of architectural models are now possible at the Schaudepot. A selection of the more than 750 models from the Architectural Archives by over 50 architectural artists will be on display.
To mark the opening, a panel discussion will explore the value of architectural models for practice and research followed by short, guided tours of the Schaudepot.
The event is supported by the Wüstenrot Stiftung.
