An international architect and designer, Daniel Libeskind links the emotional charge of architecture with philosophy, art, literature and music. He embraces the notion that buildings are crafted with perceptible human energy, thus addressing the wider cultural context within which they are built. Daniel Libeskind established his architectural studio in Berlin, Germany in 1989. Among many others, his buildings include the Jewish Museum in Berlin, the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, or the Grand Canal Theatre in Dublin. Libeskind’s work has been exhibited in major museums and galleries around the world. In February 2003, Daniel Libeskind was selected as the master planner for the World Trade Center redevelopment.
