Following the fall of the USSR, Sokolina worked on international exhibitions for the Moscow Young Architects Association. In 1992-93, she curated traveling exhibitions \"New Architectural Concepts from Moscow\" at Green Berlin Hall, Germany, and at the Ecole d'Architecture de Strasbourg, France; and in 1994, \"Art Russia\" at the Gallery Buergerhaus (City Hall) Groebenzell, Germany.

In 1980 she received her Masters in Architecture degree from the Moscow Architectural Institute and in 1992 her Ph.D. from the Russian Academic Research Institute for the Theory of Architecture and Urban Design. In 2001, Sokolina completed the Certificate Program in Arts Administration at New York University SCPS Department of Arts, Sciences and Humanities. She interned at the Art Commission of the City of New York; the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum, Smithsonian Institution; and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum New York. ","Since 1986, Sokolina has worked on various architectural exhibitions. The first, entitled \"Concepts of Soviet Architecture 1917-1987\" held in West Berlin, was developed by the Central Academic Research Institute for the Theory of Architecture and Urban Design in partnership with the Shchusev Museum of Architecture in Moscow and the Janus Foundation in Berlin. Following the fall of the USSR, Sokolina worked on international exhibitions for the Moscow Young Architects Association. In 1992-93, she curated traveling exhibitions \"New Architectural Concepts from Moscow\" at Green Berlin Hall, Germany, and at the Ecole d'Architecture de Strasbourg, France; and in 1994, \"Art Russia\" at the Gallery Buergerhaus (City Hall) Groebenzell, Germany. Sokolina was also the curator/director of the Tabakman Museum in Hudson, NY. Her responsibilities included: the inauguration of the museum's eight galleries totaling 9,000 square feet, several permanent exhibitions and an art shop. From 1996-99 as an independent curator, Sokolina organized art exhibitions at the Steiner Foundation in Harlemville, NY, the New York Open Center in Soho, and at the American Education Center in Rego Park, NY. From 2000-2002 Sokolina was co-curator to a touring exhibition \"Journeys of the Imagination: From the former Soviet Union to the United States\" at Exhibits USA, Mid-America Arts Alliance. She volunteers for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Education Department. ","Sokolina has also edited a monographic anthology,  Architecture and Anthroposophy , in which twenty-seven distinguished subject specialists wrote chapters on philosophically and spiritually inspired trends in organic architecture and art of the 20th century. In 2002 Sokolina started working on a collaborative non-profit project, Russian Art 1860-1940 in Western Collections, Information Database on the Internet funded by a number of donors including the S.R. Guggenheim Foundation, the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation, the Judith Rothschild Foundation, and Galerie Gmurzynska in Cologne. The project aims to develop a web-based bilingual database of information on Russian art to serve as a resource for educational and scholarly research, and for national and international exchange of knowledge. As of 2007, Sokolina is an assistant professor at the Architecture and Interior Design at Miami University in Ohio. ","The guide to the Anna P.

The collection also contains Pettersen's personal papers including biographical information, family papers, and photographs. The materials range in date from 1915-2003 (bulk 1950-2000) and are divided into five series: Personal Papers, Professional Papers, Office Records, Project Records, and Artifacts and Models. See the contents list below for more detail about the individual series.","The Personal Papers series contains Pettersen's family papers, biographical information, and personal correspondence (1963-1999). The series also contains a subseries of photographs and slides.","The subseries photographs/slides are divided further into Family Portraits and Photographs, Miscellaneous. The miscellaneous photographs are mostly unidentified snapshots. Major subjects present include: Altrusa meetings; Pettersen's barn/studio and pets; Pettersen's travels to visit friends; parties/gatherings; house models; Taliesin West Half Century celebration; and a visit to Frank Lloyd Wright's Grand Waikapu Country Club in Maui, Hawaii.","The Professional Papers series consists of material relating to Pettersen's participation in various professional and civic organizations, material (collected by Pettersen) documenting Frank Lloyd Wright and Taliesin, various awards received by Pettersen, correspondence, and general reference files.","Pettersen was active locally and nationally in professional organizations, as a member of the New Jersey Society of Architects and the American Institute of Architects, and in civic organizations, as a member of the Altrusa Club, YWCA, and the New Jersey State Council on the Arts. She was also involved in various local groups/projects, such as the Housing Development Corporation of Bergen County, Bergen Community College Women's Institute Advisory Council, and the Uniform Construction Code Advisory Board. Materials relating to these activities primarily include minutes, correspondence, agendas, reports, notes, and printed material.","Professional and civic awards presented to Pettersen.","Pettersen served as an apprentice to Frank Lloyd Wright as part of the Taliesin Fellowship from 1941 to 1943. Over the years, she collected material, such as newspaper and magazine clippings, newsletters (Frank Lloyd Wright Building Conservancy and FLLW Update), documenting Frank Lloyd Wright, his buildings, and his legacy. She also collected material, such as correspondence, publications, and clippings relating to Taliesin Fellows.","The Office Records series consists of materials relating to the day to day operations of a private architectural practice including financial materials, exhibit materials, publicity, clippings and scrapbooks featuring Pettersen and her practice, and photographs.","The General subseries focuses on the daily operations of the practices with an emphasis on financial matters. Materials present include: invoices, architectural fees, budget correspondence, purchase order books (1972-2000) and appointment books (1993-1998).","The Clippings/Scrapbook subseries includes newspaper and magazine clippings (1957- 2000) about Pettersen and her practice, real estate ads for houses designed by Pettersen, and two scrapbooks compiled by Pettersen.","The Presentation Materials subseries contain exhibit boards, publicity, and other materials for three exhibits featuring Pettersen.","The Public Relations series contains materials relating to the promotion of Pettersen's practice including press clippings, correspondence between Pettersen and interviewers/media outlets, and photograph albums containing a selection of Pettersen's projects.","The Photographs subseries contain glass slides, photographs, and slides of a mixture of unidentified structures and buildings designed by Pettersen. The photographs are mostly snapshots and Polaroids.","The Computer Disks subseries contains 5 ¼-inch and 3 ½-inch diskettes. They contain office records and project files. 1986-1988 and undated","The Project Records series consists of files, specifications, drawings, and other material relating to over 650 design and construction projects carried by Pettersen with her consecutive firms Eleanore Pettersen Associates and Design Collaborative.","Arrangement note:  The  Project Index  is a way to organize the various formats of architectural records from the same project. The project index is organized alphabetically by client's last name and then by project number. Researchers should note that several distinct projects share project numbers. ","The Files subseries consists of standard forms of agreement, change orders, invoices for architectural service, applications and certificates of payment, specifications, photographs, notes, correspondence, drawings and sketches, purchase orders, job reports, schedules, and other material created by Pettersen (and, to a certain extent, her associates) in the course of work on various residential and commercial projects. Projects primarily include the design and construction of new residences, and additions and alterations to existing residences. Most projects are located in New Jersey although there are also projects in New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, Connecticut, Maine, Michigan, Colorado, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, and Florida. ","Pettersen classified some of her files as \"Dead Files.\" This classification has been retained and is indicated in the Project Index with an italicized box number. The \"Dead Files\" include boxes 40-47. ","The Specifications subseries consist primarily of master copies, but also some draft and office copies, of specifications for various projects. Copies of specifications can also be found in the Files subseries; these copies were maintained distinct from the project files and therefore seem to warrant arrangement as a separate subseries.","The Drawings subseries includes architectural plans and sketches on a variety of formats including trace paper, diazo prints, blueprints, and CAD drawings.","The Artifacts, Models series contains memorabilia, material samples, and models associated with Pettersen and her practice as well as Design Collaborative.","The copyright status of this collection is unknown.

Her artistic and architectural education began early, when her mother commissioned the architect Gerrit Thomas Rietveld to design what is now known as the Rietveld-Schroeder House, completed in 1924. For this house, Rietveld employed the revolutionary concept of moveable walls to make the interior flexible, thereby redefining the limits of space. Growing up in this house fueled Han's interest in architecture, and was the beginning of her friendship to Rietveld and her devotion to his ideas. With the encouragement of her family, Han developed her artistic talent, and worked with Rietveld and G. van de Groenekan on carpentry and furniture making in her teenage years. In 1936 she entered the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, Switzerland, and graduated in 1940 with the degree of Diplom Architekt. She did not return to the Netherlands during World War II, but worked in Portugal (where she worked for the Red Cross and the Netherlands Embassy) and Great Britain. She returned to the Netherlands in 1946. From 1946 to 1949 she worked in the Municipal Museum of Modern Art in Amsterdam under W. Sandberg. ","Beginning in 1949 Schroeder worked first as a draftsman and then as a personal assistant to Rietveld. During these years she experimented with materials and concepts of interior design. She worked with Rietveld on Federal housing projects, schools, exhibitions, and the Sonsbeek Sculpture Pavillion, among other projects. She opened her own office in 1954. At that time she was one of two registered woman architects among 3000 registered men in the Netherlands. The most significant designs she did between 1954 and 1963 were the Gaastra House in Zeist; Ellinchem, a Center for Rejected and Problem Children in Ellecom; the Academy of Social Work, Amsterdam, where she designed a snack bar and auditorium; the Kessler House, a recreation building for employees of the Netherlands Steel Furnaces; and various Youth and Community Centers in Utrecht, Oldebrock, and Eerbeek. During this time she also designed stationery and exhibits. In 1963 she emigrated to the United States. She first worked at firms in Los Angeles, California, but accepted a position at Adelphi University in Garden City, New York, to teach interior design. In 1966 she taught at the Parsons School of Design in New York City, and then at the New York Institute of Technology from 1967 to 1979. In 1979 she became a Professor of Interior Design at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Virginia. ","Schroeder retired in 1988, and died in Amsterdam on March 20, 1992.","The guide to the Han Schroeder Architectural Collection by Special Collections and University Archives, Virginia Tech, is licensed under a CC0 ( https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/ ).","The processing, arrangement, and description of the Han Schroeder Architectural Papers was completed in October 1998.
