Daniel Libeskind papers, 1968-1992.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/82187507

The Libeskind papers, 1970-1992, are composed of architectural drawings, notebooks, sketches, models, letters, press clippings, transparencies and videotapes which document Libeskind's design for the Jewish Museum extension to the Berlin Museum (Jüdisches Museum im Berlin Museum), 1988-1992. Libeskind called this project Between the Lines. The archive also contains 14 other design projects (1970-1991), materials related to Libeskind's teaching at the Cranbrook Academy of Art (1980-1984), manuscripts for publications and lectures, and photographs and transparencies related to these activities. Libeskind's designs for City Edge, Berlin (1986-1987) and Marking the City Boundaries, Groningen (1989-1991) are fairly well-documented. Most of the other projects, however, are represented only partially in this archive. The other projects are: Micromegas (1979), (Four) Ages of Space (1982), Chamberworks (1983), Collotypes (1983), Venice Biennale books (1985), Villa on Lützowplatz, Berlin (1991), Line of Fire, Geneva (1988), Fort Asperen, Netherlands (1989), Yatai, Japan (1989), Folly, Osaka, Japan (1989-1990), Über den Linden, Berlin (1990), Museum of Edinburgh, Scotland (1991). Designs by Libeskind's students at Cranbrook are represented in photographs and transparencies (ca. 3.5 linear ft.).
