Ice House I (1971)
AP207.S1.1971.PR06
Description:
The project series documents the project "Ice House I" for which Pettena once again studied the transformation of a building overtaken by nature. The project consisted of pouring water on the walls of an abandoned school building in Minneapolis and letting it freeze during the night to obtain a building covered by ice. "The school preserved its typology, the typical form of that typology, but once coated in ice it was the material that transformed it: it came alive, for it had been worked by nature." It is unclear if this project was ever performed. The project series contains photographs of the frozen building, sketches, a perspective drawing, and project descriptions in English and in Italian.
