BREAKING GROUND: ADVENTURES IN LIFE AND ARCHITECTURE

Book ID/图书代码： 08900004B09289

English Summary/英文概要： The internationally renowned architect introduces his iconoclastic approach to public space and shares his vision for the most important architectural project of our time, the World Trade Center rebuilding site. Drawing on his uncommon background and global perspective, in Breaking Ground Daniel Libeskind explores ideas about tragedy and hope, and the way in which architecture can memorialize—and reshape—human experience. Born in 1946 to Holocaust survivors in Poland, Daniel Libeskind eventually emigrated to New York City in 1959. A virtuoso musician before studying architecture, Libeskind has designed iconic buildings around the world, including the Jewish Museum Berlin and the Imperial War Museum in Manchester, England. In February 2003, Libeskind was chosen as the Master Plan Architect for the World Trade Center reconstruction. Full of the vitality, humor, and visionary spark that helped win him the Trade Center Commission, Breaking Ground invites readers to see architecture—and the larger world—through new perspectives.
