DANIEL LIBESKIND TO LAUNCH BREAKING GROUND IN POLAND
15 May 2008
Polish Language Version of Architects Internationally Renowned
Book Released
Architect Daniel Libeskind introduces his iconoclastic approach to
public space and shares his vision for the most important architectural
project of our time, the 1776 Freedom Tower at the World Trade Center
site, during the launch of the Polish language version of his book,
Breaking Ground: An Immigrants Journey from Poland to Ground
Zero. 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 memorializeand reshapehuman
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 World Trade Center Commission, Breaking Ground invites readers
to see architecture-and the larger world-through new perspectives.
Daniel Libeskind is an international figure in architecture and urban
design. Libeskind is Principle Design Architect in Studio Libeskind,
the firm he founded in 1990; the firm is working on major architectural
commissions including cultural institutions, museums, concert halls,
landscape projects, stage designs, and exhibitions around the world.
