Modelando el Mundo : imágenes de la arquitectura precolombina presents 150 pieces of pre-Columbian period styles as Mochica, Huari, Chimu and Inca, worked in various media such as ceramics, stone, metal, and textiles which are displayed to allow reflection on architectural creation in the Andes and its representation.
