POPS"death, life, and libeskind" Saturday, February 04, 2006 Death, Life and Libeskind An essay by Brian Hanson and Nikos Salingaros. The architecture of Daniel Libeskind follows two distinct threads--the geometry employed in his Holocaust Memorials, and the geometry of those buildings whose purpose is life and regeneration.
