Modelling for the Camera pays tribute to two important systems of architectural the model and the photograph. Rescuing over 100 original photographs of outstanding models--some eventually realized, and some that would remain unbuilt--from 20th-century Spain, this volume offers a modern, visual, critical and historiographical discourse on Spanish architecture from this rich period after the First World War.Beyond the analysis of the models’ technical and compositional structure, the book includes sample pictures by photographers such as Francesc Català-Roca, Joaquín del Palacio (Kindel), Juan Pando, Martin Lladó, Oriol Maspons Ubiña Gomez and Ramón Massats, and architects such as José Manuel Aizpurúa, Alejandro de la Sota and Fernando Higueras. An amazing compendium of both modernist photography and architecture, this substantial hardcover is one of the first of its kind.

From its inception, photography has been a key resource in the study of architecture, as architects perceived that the photographic representation of their work would become the iconic image of their artistry. Photography & Modern Architecture in Spain 1925-1965 looks at the history of architectural photography during Spanish architecture's modern period, which ranged from the avant-garde of the 1920s to the conclusion of the International Style. Alongside hundreds of photographs documenting the architectural environment of Spain during these decades, text by Iñaki Berguera unfolds the relationship between photographer and architect. Among the photographers included are Francesc Catala-Roca, Marin Chivite, Paco Gomez, Alejandro de la Sota, José Galle, Luis Lladó, Oriol Maspons, Nicolás Muller, Margaret Michaelis, Francisco Ruiz Tilve, Alberto Schommer, Julio Ubiña, José de Yarza García, Fernando Higueras, José Manuel Aizpúrua, Fernando García Mercadal and Josep Brangulí.
