Daniel Libeskind


Daniel Libeskind, born May 12, 1946 in Lódź, Poland, the son of Holocaust survivors, is an architect who became a naturalized citizen of the United States in 1965. He is a 1965 alumnus of The Bronx High School of Science. His architecture uses a language of skewed angles, intersecting geometries, shards, voids and punctured lines to communicate feelings of loss, absence and memory whilst addressing the immediate situation, however typical, in a manner that constantly calls attention to itself. He has mainly designed museums and galleries.


His recent projects include:
