Mit einem Vorwort von Prof. Dr. W. Michael BlumenthalThe Jewish Museum Berlin and its famous building designed by architect Daniel Libeskind are one of the highlights few visitors of the German capital want to miss. Some of these visitors want to know why Germany decided to build Libeskind's design and erect such a museum. This book gives an answer and doing so it touches upon German-Jewish relations after the Holocaust, the history of the first decade of reunited Berlin after the fall of the wall and the decisive role played by a prominent American, W. Michael Blumenthal, former Secretary of the Treasury in the Carter Administration.
The Jewish Museum Berlin is one of best-known and most prestigious museums in all of Germany, and the building in which it the permanent exhibition is lodged, designed by the architect Daniel Libeskind, has gained worldwide fame. But was this success inevitable? Why was Libeskind´s structure added to the existing former building of the Berlin Court of Appeal? How did the Jewish section of a metropolitan historical museum become a national museum directed toward the history and culture of Jews in Germany? Daniel Bussenius portrays the idea behind this museum and the controversies surrounding its creation in the years 1971 to 2001.
