Description:
- The civic address for this photograph is "Zaanstraat (?)" as it is not known whether these entrances are on the east or the west side of the courtyard of Block 3. The west side was chosen, Zaanstraat, as the east side also contains the school which diminishes the number of entrances on that side.

Projet
AP178.S1.1958.PR01
Description:
This project series documents the Casa de Chá, Restaurante da Boa Nova in Leça de Palmeira, Portugal. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 9/50. In the past the office identified the project as number 99. The office assigned the dates 1958-1963 for this project. The coastal site for this project was selected by Portuguese architect Fernando Távora. The project was built after the proposal won an architecture competition held by the municipality of Matosinhos in 1958. Távora initiated the project in collaboration with Francisco Figueiredo, and later handed the project over to Siza. In an interview with Eduardo Souto Moura, Moura recounts that Távora gave the project to Siza and five other aids before leaving on vacation (Juan Rodrigues, Carlos Seoane, et al, “Siza by Siza”). In the 1970s, Siza designed the furniture for this project and also worked on the 1990s restoration and renovation work. The project series consists of sketches, studies, plans, elevations, and details for the Casa de Chá, Restaurante da Boa Nova as well as sketches of the furniture designed by Siza. Photographs, negatives, and slides document the exterior and interior of the built project, as well as the project site. There are also postcards of the built project and photographs taken by photographers Rui Morais de Sousa, Juan Rodriguez, Alvão (Azevedo & Fernandes), Stitchting Wonen, and Charters. Textual documentation includes correspondence from the Câmara Municipal de Matosinhos, including correspondence addressed to Távora, as well as correspondence from Távora and Siza. Also included are notes and project documentation.

AP207.S1.1971.PR04
Description:
This project series documents Pettena's performance "Vestirsi Di Siede", also know in English as "Wearable Chairs". The performance was carried out between 3 pm and 5 pm on February 12, 1971, in the streets of Minneapolis by ten students of Pettena at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. The students, each wearing a portable chair harnessed on their back, wandered around the city, either by foot or by bus, and than returned to the college. "In this performance, it was the body that activated and gave meaning to the object: the chair only taking on meaning when carried, otherwise, it became disjointed." [1] The chairs were then put on display at the Minneapolis Institute of Art. A second edition of the performance was also carried out with the students from Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti (NABA) in Milan, 2011, and an installation of the chairs was presented at the exhibition "Un art pauvre" at the Centre Pompidou in 2016. The project series contains photographs of the performance by the students of the Minneapolis College of Art and Design and photographs of the exhibit at the Minneapolis Institute of Art in 1971. It also contains three sketches for the chairs, a drawing of the performance and a statement about the perfomance. The project series also includes photographs of the performance of the NABA students in 2011.

Description:
File documents an executed project for the Performing Arts Centre, Cornell University, in Ithaca, New York. This project was originally planned in two phases, with the second phase to be constructed at a later date, when funding was made available. File also documents an urban design study of the Collegetown area of the City of Ithaca, encompassing the site of the Performing Arts Centre, as well as unexecuted projects for a hotel and student housing, on a site adjacent to the Performing Arts Centre. These projects were part of an urban redevelopment programme for the Collegetown area, centered on the Performing Arts Centre, and instigated by Cornell University, with the City of Ithaca and private developers. Material in this file was produced between 1971 and 1989. File contains reference and measured drawings, conceptual drawings, a large number of design development drawings, as well as several presentation drawings and working drawings for the Performing Arts Centre. File also contains reference and measured drawings, design development and presentation drawings for the Collegetown urban design study. A smaller number of design development drawings depict hotel and student housing projects. Photographic materials include views of study and presentation models by John Donat Photography, photographers Wolfgang Hoyt (Esto Photographics) and Peter Walser, views of the completed Performing Arts Centre by photographer Richard Bryant, as well as views of existing buildings by photographer John Reis for the Collegetown urban study. Textual records are also present in the file. Study and presentation models represent the Performing Arts Centre.
