AIA SF/SFMOMA ARCHITECTURE LECTURE SERIES PRESENTS DANIEL LIBESKIND:
BREAKING GROUND
2004/11/19 06:30 pm
Herbst Theater, 401 Van Ness Avenue, San Francisco
Daniel Libeskind, the internationally-renowned architect whose soaring,
boldly imaginative design was selected for the rebuilding of the World
Trade Center site will discuss his new book, BREAKING GROUND: Adventures
in Life and Architecture. The book provides a startlingly candid,
behind-closed-doors account of the design competition for the WTC site,
one of the most publicly-debated events in the history of architecture.
BREAKING GROUND also chronicles Libeskind’s personal and professional
life leading up to the competition, including his immigration to the
United States at thirteen, and the twelve years spent building the
Jewish Museum in Berlin—now the most-visited museum in Germany and his
most acclaimed project prior to the WTC competition.
$15 for AIA SF and SFMOMA members, students, and seniors and $20 for
general admission. Tickets can be purchased directly through
www.cityboxoffice.com or by calling 415.392.4400.
