DECORATIVE WALL ON THE FIRST FLOOR IN SECONDARY SCHOOL OF ELECTRICAL ENGEENIRING AND COMPUTER SCIENCE MARIBOR

Ivan Čobal created three wall compositions for the Secondary School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. The concave walls along the hallways on the ground, first and second floors are covered by black terrazzo into which he carved drawings in light brown. Disused water fountains are incorporated into the lower sections of the walls. The drawings depict motifs that recall various production processes closely linked to the original curriculum of the school. This was conceived more broadly and included electrical and civil engineering, and engineering textiles. The wall on the ground floor is ornamented with a group of five men and a woman, gathered around a machine.
