Description:
- The group of 86 photographs PH1987:0996 - PH1987:1081 by Bernd and Hilla Becher show 75 views of steel mill blast furnaces and 11 views of mines. There are 45 views of steel mill blast furnaces in Germany, 15 in the United States, and five in each of France, Luxembourg and Belgium. There are five views of mines in Germany, two in Belgium, two in the United States, and one in each of France and Wales. - The group of 86 photographs PH1987:0996 - PH1987:1081 by Bernd and Hilla Becher show 15 views of steel mill blast furnaces in the United States including: three views of the Bethlehem Steel steel mill in Johnstown, Pennsylvania (PH1987:1054 - PH1987:1056); three views of the U.S. Steel steel mill in Youngstown, Ohio (PH1987:1038, PH1987:1057, and PH1987:1059); two views of the Sheet & Tube Co. steel mill in Youngstown, Ohio (PH1987:1060 - PH1987:1061); and one view each of the Republic Steel steel mill in Youngstown, Ohio (PH1987:1047), the Central Furnaces of the U.S. Steel steel mill in Cleveland, Ohio (PH1987:1039), the U.S. Steel Duquesne Plant in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (PH1987:1040), the U.S. Steel Edgar Thompson Plant in Braddock, Pennsylvania (PH1987:1041), the Jones & Laughlin Steel Co. steel mill in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (PH1987:1062), the U.S. Steel steel mill in Gary, Indiana (PH1987:1058), and the Bethlehem Steel steel mill in Sparrows Point, Baltimore, Maryland (PH1987:1037). - The photographers indicate that the group of six photographs PH1987:1054 - PH1987:1059 of views of blast furnaces should be exhibited in two rows arranged from left to right and top to bottom in numerical according to the photographers' inscriptions "N 1" through "N 6".

Sub-series
Il Ritorno Dei Re (1980)
AP207.S2.SS01
Description:
The sub-series documents the exhibition "Il Ritorno Dei Re" designed by Pettena and presented at the Refettorio di Santa Maria Novella, in Florence in 1980. The exhibition presented the heads of the Carolingian kings statues, originally part of the facade of Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral, that were removed after the French Revolution and later replaced by new sculptures by Viollet-le-Duc. The statues heads, rediscovered during excavation work in Paris, then toured museums in Europe and in the United States, including in Florence. Pettena's design managed "to evoke, through a cunning use of light, the “presence” of the kings, as the heads stood out as the only illuminated elements in a setting that, precisely because of its imposing character, was kept in semidarkness." [1] The sub-series contains Pettena's draft exhibition proposal, with plans, concept development notes, research and a section of the Refettorio di Santa Maria Novella showing the exhibition space.

AP140.S2.SS1
Description:
Sub-series documents competition entries and projects by James Stirling, and by the successive firms of James Stirling; Stirling and Gowan; James Stirling and Partner; James Stirling, Michael Wilford, and Associates; Michael Wilford and Partners; and Michael Wilford GmbH. Several projects were carried out in association with other architects, including Léon Krier, Walter Nägeli, and the firms of Giancarlo de Carlo and of Marlies Hentrup Norbert Heyer. A majority of projects were designed for London, England and other locations in England and Scotland, Germany and the United States. Other projects were designed for Italy, Iran, Japan, France, Algeria, Spain, Netherlands, Kenya, Qatar, Canada, Singapore and Switzerland. Material in this sub-series was produced between 1951 and probably 2004. The publication drawings for Stirling's projects were often drawn by Leon Krier, Russell Bevington, or Ulrich Schaad ('British Architecture Today', 1991). Sub-series contains reference drawings, conceptual and design development drawings, publication and presentation drawings and panels, and working drawings. It also contains photographic materials, textual records, models and artefacts.
