'The Museum reintegrates the history of Berlin with Jewish history across the abyss of the Holocaust. This displacement of the spirit is made visible through the Void which cuts, fragments, and splinters the ensemble as a whole, breaking it into pieces in order to make it accessible, both functionally and spiritually. The Void is the impenetrable emptiness across which the absence of Berlin's Jewish citizens is made apparent to the visitor. The Museum extension is a building which looks to the hopeful future of Berlin and its new status as capital of Germany.' - Daniel Libeskind. The Jewish Museum extension of the Berlin Museum is a radical design based on a fundamental rethinking of architecture in relation to history. For Libeskind, it is a work that gathers his previous conceptual research into a single building. Daniel Libeskind's unique intellectual vision is becoming a physical reality through numerous built projects. Following his many years as a theorist and teacher - he was an AA Unit Master from 1975-77 - Daniel Libeskind's practice has built up a reputation for a multidisciplinary approach.
