For over five decades, Dan Graham has been a significant influence in the world of conceptual art, creating works that surprise, unsettle, and push the boundaries of what people expect when they set out to view art. Perhaps his greatest achievement is the Pavilions, a series of walk-through glass installations that place architectural elements in space, thus altering the viewer's perception of their surroundings.

The result is challenging, allowing viewers to rediscover and experience once again the very concept of spatial dimension. "Buildings and Signs 1978 Models" celebrates Graham's pavilions through numerous images accompanied by the artist's commentaries exploring their place in his body of work and the various conceptual and artistic breakthroughs they represent.
