AP148.S1.1971.PR02
Description:
The project series comprises study sketches, drawings, and brief notes related to the design for the lamp "Misura", a prototype made for Superstudio by Flos in 1971. The accompanying notes refer to a checkered design on a tilting white board, with the light filtering through and transforming this into a transparent surface. Poli identifies 16 pages of the sketchbook as being relevant to this design project (though does not specify which pages), and notes that the remaining 48 pages are for the Cone table project (see AP148.S1.1971.PR04). The accompanying original folder in which Poli included the loose sketches and notes was titled "Lampada Floss | Tavolo a Cono". The technical drawing is stamped Superstudio, with the address on Bellosguardo in Florence. Also included is a photocopy of a photograph of Alessandro Poli and the lamp prototype.

This project subseries documents the Senior Club Anziani [Senior citizens’s clubhouse] designed and built as part of Block 121. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 2/80 C. Documenting the Senior Club Anziani are sketches, studies, plans, elevations, and details. There are also slides of the built project as well as slides of sketches and the model. For correspondence and documentation related to this project see the project series for Concurso, Block 121, Schlesisches Tor (AP178.S1.1980.PR02). It is important to note that some of the sketches, drawings, and photographs for Senior Club Anziani and the Kita are intermingled. When this is the case it has been noted at the file level for either for either subseries AP178.S1.1980.PR02.SS2 or AP178.S1.1980.PR02.SS3.

The project series documents "Buon Compleanno", an installation that consists of a bed made up of a set of palanquins assembled together to "acquire significance only when assembled, when united according to an elementary scheme that could in theory be continued ad infinitum, creating a “place” of greater and greater intensity." [1] The installation was designed by Pettena at the invitation of the Galleria Special, in Bari, in 1985. The bed was produced by the gallery to present an interpretation of household furniture as ceremonial places. The project series contains sketches and photographs of the installation, a promotional card by the Galleria Special, and a gallery press release with a handwritten note by Pettena on the installation.

The project series documents "Mappe Recinti Itinerari Territori", a rug made of eleven small tapestries hand-woven together. Pettena designed this rug for a special production for "Megalopoli" in 1989. Each of the tapestries represent four subjects: itineraries, territories, maps and enclosures. These subjects "are the means required for the definition of space inside or outside those “magic circles” that are the walls of a city, the beginning of a construction, as the rituals that are performed inside any enclosure take on a unique quality and role, different from whatever lies beyond this boundary." [1] The project series contains a reference photograph and photo montages of the eleven small tapestries forming the rug.

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.

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.

The project series documents the performance "La Mia Idea Di Architettura" held at Base, Spazio per l'arte in Florence, in 2014. The performance consists of a lecture given by Pettena, standing in a window frame, speaking to people passing in the street. "To illustrate his idea of architecture, Pettena chose to address not only experts in the field but also a random audience, passers-by on the street as he spoke." [1] The lecture was held in the context of an exhibition on Radical Tools, the Florentine group of the ‘radical’ movement architects and artists. Each protagonist of the group were invited to present a lecture. The project series contains photographs of the performance.
