Essay --

The museum that Daniel Libeskind created through his superb creativity is a direct mirror image of the persistent and consistent presence of Jewish history in the past, present and in the far future. The metaphorical obstacle that the project created was to become a representative of the Jewish struggle and their urge for rescue during the Holocaust, in which Daniel Libeskind defines the experiences in 3 different categories; Continuity, exile and death. The physical procedure that the organization had to overcome were both very solidly influenced by the post modern era, in which they considered as ‘esthetic’ of which included both classical and modern design with the use of zinc faà §ade but deigned in such a classical way that it still highlights its purpose for its presence in Berlin. Furthermore the buildings remarkable connection and message speaks for more than a modern presence-with respect to the social fabric of the city than earlier architectural designs. The Jewish Museum in Berlin, opened to the world in 2001. This museum revolutionizes the social, radical and ethnic history of the Jews in Germany from the 19th century to the present day. The museum especially presents and mixes for the first time, the war in Germany, and the consequences of the Holocaust that the Jews were forced to be in. The new design that Daniel Libeskind came up with, which was created a year before the Berlin Wall was abolished was based on three formats that underpin the museum’s foundation: firstly, the impossibility of understanding the history of Berlin without understanding the enormous logical, economic, ethnic participation made by the Jewish nations. 2nd, the responsibility to integrate the physical and emotional in depth by meaning o... ... is a daring and reserved one. By using ‘fragmentation, separation, non-rectilinear and non-vertical walls’ Ignites the suitable emotion that the museum is trying to receive, both joyful and somber. The building creates the response for one of the worlds most atrocious tragedies which makes the people who visit the building reconsider the purpose of the museum making it much more than a funky design that is trying to get people to visit just for its appearance. Perhaps, Libeskind said it the best,â€Å"The task of building a Jewish Museum in Berlin demands more than a mere functional response to the program for the people. Such a task in all its ethical depth requires the incorporation of the void of Berlin back into itself, in order to disclose how the past continues to affect the present and to reveal how a hopeful horizon can be opened through the aporias of time.’’
