Architectural photographer Pedro Kok shared with us a work of art in the sculpture garden of the Kröller-Müller Museum, by Dutch artist Pjotr Müller (1947): House of Dr. Jung (2004-2006). In its collection, the museum has several works of art by Müller, chiefly works on paper. In 1987, Müller also made the work To Noumenon in the sculpture garden, which like House of Dr. Jung was a temporary acquisition designed to decay in a natural manner.
The House of Dr. Jung consists of three rectangular stacked “boxes” made of scrap wood, which together form a house. The building consists of three floors – a basement, a storey above it and an attic at the upper level – and was constructed according to the maxim Omne trinum perfectum (every perfect thing is threefold). In his drawings for the house, Müller made use of the proportions and unit system of the architect R. M. Schindler (1887-1953). This Austrian-born architect worked with the famed Frank Lloyd Wright in the United States, and is particularly known for the Lovell Beach House in Los Angeles and King’s Road House in West-Hollywood.
