AP207.S1.1986.PR01
Description:
The project series documents "Ombra", an installation presented for the first time at the Expo Arte of Galleria Speciale, in Bari, in 1986. It consists of an overcoat with flexible elements inserted in the lining of the fabric that form a structure to either create a seat for the wearer to sit on it or to stand on its own, if not worn. "So the multiplicity of roles, functions and subjects gives rise to an ambiguity, and a source of anxiety for he who, having conceived, made and “inhabited” it, perceives its more disquieting implications, those of an anomalous shadow, of another self that exists even in our absence." [1] The project series contains a sketch, photographs of the installation at the Galleria Speciale in 1986, a montage of film stills from Pettena's video explaining the installation, and digital versions of the installation film.

AP207.S1.1992.PR01
Description:
The project series documents Pettena's preliminary study and proposal for the restoration and conversion of the Forte Inglese, a Napoleonic era fortification in Portoferraio, Italy. Pettena worked on this project in 1992. The restauration and conversion project for the fort was not realized because of changes in the local government. The proposal consisted of converting the fort into an exhibition space, an auditorium and a public garden "by simply adding spaces that utilized volumes created underground or at the rear: thus the respect of the preexisting context was assured, from the viewpoint of history as well as landscape." [1] The project series contains a preliminary study report by Pettena, sketches, site plans, floor plans, elevations, and sections for Pettena's proposal, reference photographs, research material, such as photocopies of publications on the fort and reference plans for the historic building.
