Product Description

RIBA Journal, March 1999
'...an excellent photo essay by Helene Binet and the text of a conversation between its architect, Daniel Libeskind and Doris Erbacher and Peter Paul Kubitz... captures an important moment in the museum's short but already significant history...'

Book Description
Daniel Libeskind's latest work is a building of colossal scale and Berlin's most radical architecture project to date. The Jewish Museum, opened on the 24th of January this year, is central to Berlin's 'critical reconstruction' as a capital city and has been described as a truly extraordinary building. Constantly featured in both the architecture and mainstream press, Daniel Libeskind has been has been hailed as the 'man of the moment' and 'one of the great avant-garde architects of our time.' This unique publication is the first yet to be published on the completed Jewish Museum, or indeed any of Libeskind's built works to date.

Daniel Libeskind: Jewish Museum Berlin includes a foreword by Michael Blumenthal, director of the Museum, an essay by Helmuth F. Braun, curator, and over 60 pages of photographs by the highly acclaimed architectural photographer Hlne Binet. The inspiration behind Libeskind's architectural practice emerges - in his own words - through extensive interviews between the architect and Doris Erbacher and Peter Kubitz.

With Libeskind's current projects including the spiral extension to the V&A Museum (London), the Imperial War Museum (London), the Shoah Centre (Manchester), and the Jewish Museum (San Francisco), it seems likely that his name will be a significant one for some years to come.

Daniel Libeskind: Jewish Museum Berlin is essential reading for all those interested in contemporary architecture and the role of the museum at the end of the century.
