It wasn’t long ago that architect Daniel Libeskind was cool. “But a string of large projects – and wide popular acclaim – have dampened the enthusiasm with which some architects view him. Is there a tinge of jealousy? Or after the high-mindedness of his conceptual projects and the buzz of the Jewish Museum, is there disappointment about discovering that Libeskind is an ordinary architect after all? Could it be, some murmur, that he is just a form maker? A showman? Is there something just a little bit kitsch about his work?”
