Project
Reference number:
AP207.S1.1971.PR02
Description:
This project series documents five of the fifteen proposals submitted by Pettena for the Trigon competition in Graz, Austria, in 1971. The proposals documented in this project series are the following: Proposal n° 7 "Imprisonment" and "Architectural project #2 (Planes crossing)"; Proposal n° 11 "Instantaneous birth"; Proposal n° 12 "Conservazione"; Proposal n° 13 "Sedie e tavolo d’erba"; and Proposal n° 14 "Grass Architecture" I, II, and III. Pettena won the first prize for both his proposal "Imprisonment" and "Architectural Project #2" (Proposal n° 7) and for "Grass Architecture" I and II (Proposal n° 14). In these proposals, Pettena "questioned the temporal dimension of architecture as well as its relationship with nature." [1] The proposal "Grass Architecture" consists of shapes of grass rising from the ground, creating a perishable form of architecture coming from within and becoming part of the territory. The "Imprisonment" and "Architectural Project #2" proposals are a variation of Pettena's previous performance project "Cancellazione di uno stato" in 1970. These proposals consist of "trails of passing airplanes crisscrossing? the sky, creating the outlines of a grid of clouds. Here, the legacy of the grid in modern architecture is rendered formless, as if “naturalized” by the evaporation of the clouds, subject to chance and the freely drifting trails left by the airplanes." [2] The project series contains presentation drawings (five original drawings, seventeen reprographic copies, and four photographic reproductions), for Pettena's proposals "Imprisonment" and "Architectural project #2 (Planes crossing)", "Instantaneous birth", "Conservazione", "Sedie e tavolo d’erba", and "Grass Architecture" I, II, and III. The project series also includes photographs of models for the "Grass Architecture" proposal.

Joseph Rykwert fonds
Reference number:
AP209
Synopsis:
The Joseph Rykwert fonds, 1928-2022, documents Joseph Rykwert’s career as an architectural historian, author and professor. The fonds includes the records for over a dozen monographs written between the mid-1960s and the mid-2010s as well as edited works and articles, and details his teaching and lecturing activities from the 1960s onwards in universities in Europe and the United States. The records highlight Joseph Rykwert’s multidisciplinary approach, which involved archaeology, anthropology and psychoanalysis in his study of the history and theory of architecture and of the urban form. The fonds is composed of textual records, publications and ephemera, and of photographs including multiple albums and a large number of slides; the fonds also documents Joseph Rykwert’s career as an independent designer through drawings realized between the late 1940s and the late 1970s.
