Deconstructivism / Libeskind

Deconstructivism found his name in the literary movement of the déconconstruction. This contemporary movement is opposed to the movement of Modernism . This movement is about creating a break with history, society , the site and the technological traditions. 

Architects seek an opportunity to build another space, a space formally expressive , to reveal and not conceal.  The architect Daniel Libeskind has been associated with this style.

Daniel Libeskind creates an architecture that does not simply construct space and shape of space, but that is almost literally built out of space.

This style is a fundamental principle of creating new spaces, seeking expressive formality. Indeed, if we take the example of the Jewish Museum in Berlin space and shape can beings interpreted by their irrationality and the ability to disturb the usual way of perceiving spatial configurations.


The goal of the architect is to move from the Jewish Historical experience to a sensory and emotionally experience thanks to different steps in the museum that you have to pass in order to continue the visit. The broken line is the concept of this project. Indeed Libeskind defends the values ​​of deconstructivism with its high walls, its forms examined, and the style that comes out of the space.






This monument has to my mind so many ways to represent the history of the jewish people. Like A sinuous path between room which is troubling or even exhausting for the visitor. A succession of empty spaces which give an impression of distortion of time and space , caused by the confusion of the spaces that we travel . Underpasses that puts evil visitor at ease. Spaces with virulent forms are used, with low ceilings , floors awry , non- vertical walls of artificial light . The crossing of this exhibition can be considered a required physical test by the architect. It created an aggressive and confusing building, not trying to seduce the visitor but to push him , surprise him.
