	Daniel Libeskind - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Daniel Libeskind, (born May 12, 1946 in Łódź, Poland) is an architect who rocketed to fame in 2003 after receiving a commission to create the master plan for the reconstruction of the World Trade Center.
		One of the leading contemporary architects of today, Daniel Libeskind is the son of Holocaust survivors and became a naturalized citizen of the United States in 1965.
		Libeskind thumbed his nose at a request to place it in a more rentable location next to the World Trade Center (PATH station) and instead placed it a block west because in profile it would line up and resemble the Statue of Liberty.

	Libeskind Design WTC
		Libeskind's design, focusing on the pit and its bleak walls, has sustained a groundswell of support that began almost as soon as it was unveiled in December.
		Libeskind is likely to focus on the memorial area, preparing guidelines for the memorial competition, which is scheduled to begin in the next couple of months.
		Libeskind featured two ground-level parks as well, one of which is positioned to capture a wedge of sunlight each year on Sept. 11, from the time that the first plane hit the trade center's north tower until the time that tower fell, the second of the two to collapse.

	The New Yorker: Fact
		Libeskind made it clear that he was prepared to walk off the project, which would have embarrassed both the L.M.D.C. and Pataki, whose support was crucial to Libeskind’s selection, and who has pledged to start construction on the tower by next year, when the Republicans come to town for their Presidential Convention.
		Libeskind applied to Cooper Union, partly because it was in New York City and tuition-free, and partly because the dean of its architecture school, John Hejduk, had made it a center for the kind of theoretical exploration of architecture that Libeskind was looking for.
		Libeskind didn’t tell his wife that he was increasingly unhappy at Cranbrook, thinking she enjoyed it, and she didn’t tell him that she, too, was miserable.

	News@UofT -- Gehry chair holder Libeskind to design new World Trade Center -- March 4, 2003
		Libeskind has described the spire as symbolizing the year of American independence, the gardens as an affirmation of life and the exposed concrete walls of the pit, which hold back the waters of the Hudson River, as representative of the foundations of democracy, "standing fast under the onslaught of a swift and terrifying enemy".
		Libeskind was born in Poland in 1946 and emigrated to New York as a teenager.
		His Berlin-based firm, Studio Daniel Libeskind, is internationally renowned for the Jewish Museum in Berlin, the Imperial War Museum North in Manchester and extensions to the Denver Art Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

	Daniel Libeskind Studio Weil Mallorca for Artist Barbara Weil
		Libeskind describes it as "landscape as house and house as artistic landscape", and Weil says it is a "space for contemplation, domestic reverie and presentation of artworks".
		Studio Weil, built for about $720,000 (£433,000), is a brave and remarkable structure and a fascinating example of creative synergy between two artists who, unknowingly, had shared something like a common approach to visual form long before Libeskind became news.
		Studio Weil is, indeed, a curious and special place; it is also a fitting home for an artist who thrives on ambiguity, designed by an architect who does the same.

		The collaboration between David Childs and Daniel Libeskind was a difficult one, not only because both men are architectural superstars accustomed to being in charge of their own projects, but because they approach architecture from two very different perspectives.
		Libeskind, though he was offered a job at the firm of the New York architect Richard Meier, quit after only seven days.
		These emotional designs tend to resonate with public audiences, yet Libeskind's projects are often stalled or altered by developers who do not share his vision, contractors who have difficulty translating them into a reality, and critics who balk at their expense and their affect on the skyline.

		NARRATOR: Daniel Libeskind was born among the ruins of war-torn Poland, the son of Holocaust survivors who'd escaped the Nazis by fleeing to the Soviet Union.
		DANIEL LIBESKIND: I cannot tell you what Manhattan looks like to someone who's an immigrant and who was coming with all the anxieties and all the hopes that every person who has ever come to this country has.
		At Studio Libeskind, the battle was on to incorporate iconic elements of Daniel's vision within the structure of Childs's tower.

	Daniel Libeskind brings his star power -- and his teammates -- to a new museum (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Libeskind was studying a model of the space when he abruptly declared the wall should be sliced with backlit lettering related to l'chaim -- the Hebrew phrase "to life," and the starting point for Libeskind's overall design, which is meant to evoke a joyous blast of creativity.
		Libeskind is not the only celebrity architect who, once the original vision is in place, serves primarily as instigator and critic.
		Libeskind brushed aside such concerns, saying each design is marked by "passion and authenticity" -- just as he shrugged off the strain of a globe- trotting life plotted for him by an assistant who maps out daily schedules that might start in one city, touch down on a second and conclude in a third.

	The Penn Current / February 27, 2003 / Libeskind in running to rebuild WTC
		Studio Daniel Libeskind, headed by the Paul Philippe Cret Professor of Architecture, submitted a proposal that includes a 1,575-foot tower, which would be the world’s tallest structure if built, two public parks and a museum in addition to office and retail space.
		Libeskind, who immigrated to New York from Poland as a teenager, said he was motivated to enter the design competition by his sense of loyalty to the city.
		The challenge, Libeskind said, was to reconcile two seemingly irreconcilable values: the desire to leave the WTC site open out of respect for the memory of those who died on Sept. 11 and the desire to replace the fallen towers with a similarly iconic structure that would define the skyline.

		Libeskind has made the demands in meetings with redevelopment officials and in written proposals he's submitted this month to the Port Authority and developer Larry Silverstein.
		Libeskind gave the PA a "station design collaboration proposal" for the PATH project on June 5, according to sources who briefed The Post on the documents.
		Libeskind sent a similar proposal to Silverstein, arguing he should be given creative control over the Freedom Tower - which the developer has said will be designed by another architect, although in consultation with Libeskind.

	LIBESKIND IN HOLLOWAY
		Daniel Libeskind's first London building (there is already the War Museum in Salford) has slipped quietly into the North London skyline, less controversially and less dramatically than his recently unveiled proposals for Ground Zero.
		Libeskind remains unperturbed, since his is an architecture of survival and emancipation.
		A bigger problem for Daniel is the curious 'cloning' of his aesthetic.

		Libeskind said he was aiming for "places with intimacy and places with grandeur," and that's what he's given us.
		Libeskind said that within four years we should have the major public components – the memorial site and museum, the cultural center, the transit hub, and the restored skyline.

		The Libeskind design is daringly imaginative and inspiring, honoring those who were lost while affirming the triumph of life, and signaling the rebirth of Lower Manhattan and its iconic skyline.
		Libeskind opens a portion of the “bathtub” of the World Trade Center site and exposes the great slurry walls that survived September 11th, creating a sacred place and sites for the memorial celebrating the resilience of the slurry wall.

		During the design process, the Studio Libeskind team turned their attention from the design of buildings to the exploration of the public spaces between and within them.
		Arens was collaborating with Studio Libeskind on the design of the Denver Art Museum last summer when the latter was invited to participate in the design competition organized by the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation (LMDC), which is overseeing reconstruction of the World Trade Center site.
		The Libeskind scheme proposes a "thickened" urban surface that draws public space upward towards a nearly 1,800-foot tall hanging garden, and downward into a 70-foot deep memorial defined by the exposed foundation walls of the original Trade Center complex.
