Week 1
Daniel Libeskind
(born May 12, 1946 in Łódź, Poland) is an American architect, artist, and set designer of Polish-Jewish descent.
As a young child, Libeskind learned to play the accordion and quickly became a virtuoso, performing on Polish television in 1953. He won a prestigious America Israel Cultural Foundation scholarship in 1959 and played alongside a young Itzhak Perlman.[5] That summer, the Libeskinds moved to New York City on one of the last immigrant boats to the United States.
In New York, Libeskind attended the Bronx High School of Science. The print shop where his father worked was on Stone Street in lower Manhattan, and Libeskind watched the original World Trade Center being built in the 1960s.[6]
Libeskind became a United States citizen in 1965.[7] In 1970, he received his professional architectural degree from the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art; he received a postgraduate degree in History and Theory of Architecture at the School of Comparative Studies at Essex University in 1972.
Representive work
A residential tower, the Ascent at Roebling's Bridge in Covington, Kentucky, United States, was designed by Studio Daniel Libeskind. It was commissioned in 2004 and was completed in 2008
The aluminium clad building designed by Daniel Libeskind has very few square angles - even the main exhibition space has a curving sloped floor
