Projet
AP207.S1.2012.PR06
Description:
The project series documents the installation "Human Wall", designed by Pettena for the Galleria Enrico Fornello in Milan in 2012. The installation consists of a wall made of handmade balls of clay on which the handprints from making the clay balls intentionally remain. "The physicality and action of constructing is also accentuated here by the use of a natural material, clay, whose malleability and lack of homogeneity in themselves generate architecture, an architecture that can however be directed toward a mental use of space." [1] Another edition of this installation was presented at the Utah Museum of Contemporary Art in Salt Lake City in 2012. The project series contains drawings showing the construction of the installation and photographs of the installation.

Description:
Oud lectured in 1924-1925 in Prague and Brno on 'The Development of Modern Architecture in the Netherlands' where he made contact with contemporary international architects involved in avant-garde artists circles. As a result of his lecture tours, Oud was commissioned in 1928 to design an apartment building for a private client in Brno, Czechoslovakia. Oud designed a building where each floor consisted of a single dwelling with a communal ground floor that featured shared and functional spaces. The servants' dwelling occupied a separate wing and met with the residential dwellings at the communal staircase and lobby (Taverne et al. 2001, 319). Project series includes drawings of floor plans and elevations.
