AP207.S1.1979.PR01
Description:
The project series documents the performance "Isole Abbandonate Della Laguna" held at the Palazzo Grassi, in Venezia, during "The Art of Performance" in 1979. The setting for the performance is similar to a lecture, where the performer stands on a podium placed above television screens playing films on the abandoned islands of the Venetian Lagoon. The performer remains silent, walking around the stage. "He finally stops at the stand but, while he should speak about the environment and its pollution, his lips remain sealed. After trying several times he disappears upwards, into “the darkness of his failures“." [1] The project series contains photographs of the performance and storyboards.

Description:
The project series documents the installation "La Linea Del Tempo" presented at the Galleria Quadro 096, in Fiesole, in 2011. The installation consists of an architect's drawing table, of which the top gives the illusion of sinking in. The installation is accompanied by a television playing Pettena's 1971 movie "Intens" playing on a loop. "The idea of presenting together things that were conceived in years so distant that they can easily be thought of as two different seasons of life is meant to underline the author’s conceptual coherence on the subject of his own interest regarding the architect’s profession." [1] The project series contains three photographs of the installation and a project description.
