Daniel Libeskind
Daniel Libeskind, (born May 12, 1946 in ĹĂłdĹş, Poland) is an American architect who rocketed to fame in 2003 after receiving a commission to create the master plan for the reconstruction of the World Trade Center. His architecture uses a language of skewed angles, intersecting geometries, shards, voids and punctured lines to communicate feelings of loss, memory, angst, ennui, cloudiness, and absence, all while addressing the placidity and hopelessness of the immediate situation.
