  • The Architectural Legacy of Zvi Hecker

    1 / 1

    Cultural Significance and Future Impact

    Panel discussion

    The panel assembled for this event will address several fundamental questions: How can we preserve architectural works that have become essential to our local culture? What would be revealed about our society if we allowed these works to disappear? How can we protect Zvi Hecker's vision and unique contributions, especially when his works are at risk of destruction?

  • Zvi Hecker: Sketches

    1 / 2

    Gestures from Father to Daughter

    "The exhibition, the first after the passing of the renowned architect Zvi Hecker in Berlin in 2023, offers a new perspective on the creative force he embodied, as expressed in his dialogue with his daughter on projects he designed for her. In a letter he left, Hecker wrote that looking at his work from the perspective of the relationship between father and daughter could be "a unique reality that might be attractive because of the human touch, seldom felt in such undertakings."
    Hecker's daughter, Dr. Ella Zimmerman, a researcher at the Weizmann Institute, spent most of her life living in apartments in iconic buildings designed by her father: Dubiner House (designed with Alfred Neumann and Eldar Sharon, 1963) and the Spiral House (1989) for which he won the Rechter Prize (1999). His last project, Casa di Ella, a private house for Ella and her family in Italy, remained unfinished.
    Ella, who carries his legacy, as a witness and "collaborator," as her father referred to her, considers her father an artist, or as he himself would say, "an artist whose medium is architecture."
    The exhibition includes sketches, plans, photographs, models and films that were part of their dialogue, things they talked and corresponded about. They are part of the father-daughter relationship centered on his work. Hecker designed Ella's apartments, or works of art, as she refers to them, whereas she saw her role in their collaboration in the precise realization of his vision.
    Hecke's many sketches, part of which are on display, reveal a glimpse into his unique work and thought process. These homes can be regarded as labs for Hecker to explore his ideas on dwelling and domesticity—from the building to the apartment and the life it contains. They can also be seen as model apartments of sorts, welcoming students, architects, artists and scholars from Hecker's circle to experience his vision as a comprehensive design from inside and out.
    The exhibition does not aim to summarize the vast body of work created by this exceptional—if also controversial—groundbreaking architect. It presents an intimate and personal aspect of his approach to designing and implementing his visions in projects he designed for his daughter within the domestic and family spheres."

  • Zvi Hecker: Projects for Berlin Mitte

    1 / 3

    Zvi Hecker: Entwürfe für die Berliner Mitte

    The exhibition presents designs developed by architect Zvi Hecker for Berlin's Mitte district. With the help of drawings and models, it provides insight into his urban planning visions and into the architectural discourse conducted in Berlin in the 1990s - a unique phase of urban planning that is currently becoming the subject of historiography.

    Zvi Hecker participated in three of the most prestigious architectural and artistic design competitions for the new German capital: Square of the Republic, Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, and for the design for the Monument of Freedom and Unity in front of the Humboldt Forum. The fourth project in Berlin-Mitte, which has also (so far) remained unrealized at a no less representative location, the Brandenburg Gate, was in a sense self-commissioned.

    The idea behind the exhibition at the Mitte Museum is as obvious - all the projects shown are located in the Mitte district - as it is provocative: a review of the built reality based on Zvi Hecker's designs.

    The exhibition is accompanied by a booklet with a text by Nikolaus Bernau.

  • Zvi Hecker - Pages Of An Open Book

    1 / 2

    Exhibition

    Zvi Hecker's sketchbooks are the containers in which his "wild anarchic" thinking has been deposited; they provide information about his artistic universe. With the exhibition "Pages Of An Open Book" Hecker allows an intimate insight into this sometimes largely hidden terrain of his work for the first time. He left the selection of the open pages to the curator. It does not follow a chronology or a concentration on specific buildings, but rather their inherent poetry: "Poetry is the most precise expression of our need for precision." (ZH)

  • The Architecture of Zvi Hecker. Italian projects

    1 / 1

    An important opportunity to see all of Zvi Hecker's Italian projects in Pescara, Italy, on display at the Maison des Arts by Fondazione Pescarabruzzo. The architecture of Zvi Hecker. The Italian Projects is an exhibition that retraces, in a time span from 1999 to 2022, the design genesis of the various Italian projects through sketches, drawings, and models.
    On display are also the iconic projects built from the 1960s onwards in Europe and Israel which, as a subtle fil rouge, guide the visitor through the pages of an "open book". Indeed, the Polish-Jewish architect designed a site-specific for the Maison in the form of "Pages of an open book" so that the exhibition space is itself an example of Hecker's architectural language.
    Viewers are invited not only to see the architect's design path but also to personally experience the shape and space it generates.
    The project "La casa di Ella" that is being built in Manoppello, in the province of Pescara, is also part of the exhibition. The project narrates the important comparison between the international milieu that Hecker brings with him and the ancient Abruzzo culture which nature, characterized by an often harsh and fascinating territory, he has been able to interpret as an element full of prodromal symbols and values.
    Works will be on display from 17 September to 16 October 2022. from Wednesday to Sunday, h. 17 - 20. Vernissage 17 September at 6 pm while the catalogue will be presented on the occasion of the Finissage, which will be held on 15 October at 5 pm. The exhibition, promoted and realised by Fondazione Pescarabruzzo and with the support of the Zvi Hecker Stiftung Berlin, has Paola Ardizzola as curator.

    "It is impossible to remain indifferent to the buildings he designed.
    He was a provocateur and rebel who put up a series of masterpieces, alongside controversial eccentric structures. At the age of 90, the architect Zvi Hecker sadly overlooks architecture in Israel, and tells why there are almost no doors in his house in Berlin"

  • A Short History of Mankind - A Short History of Architecture

    1 / 1

    Apropos GretaThunberg's speech at United Nations...

    I wrote in 2004:

    A Short History of Mankind
    Over the last thousands of years, we humans have changed very little. We are still less than two meters tall, we reproduce as our ancestors have and our diet has not changed considerably. Our psychological build up has hardly changed at all. We believe in gods, we fear the unknown and we search for protection and security. Our psyche is that of a caveman.
    Though we ourselves haven't changed, we have changed the world around us. We have produced many new toys "to please the time" as Brodsky calls it. These toys have brought mixed blessings and a lot of maintenance.
    More maintenance is urgently needed as the planet earth, impaired by the growing demands of an ever-increasing mankind, shows signs of fatigue. As there is no certainty that anything will actually be done on time, we might as well return to the caves, and this time probably for good.

    Zvi Hecker
    30th November 2004

    A Short History of Architecture
    Architecture is a shelter, and it is a product of our skills. Though we as humans change very slowly, we constantly develop new skills and abandon old ones.
    To satisfy our ever-growing needs, we have to use ever-new methods. But methods also develop their own needs. The satisfaction of these needs has recently been confused with architecture.

  • Changing Metaphors

    1 / 1

    An Interview between Ory Dessau and Zvi Hecker

    available on ArchDaily.

    "[...] Ory Dessau: It seems that through architectural sketches, you try to come close to the essence of the architectural idea and the symbolism of changing metaphors.
    Zvi Hecker: Yes, I agree with this definition, in every new project one is in search of its basic idea, which we do not bring to the project, but hope to discover within it. We embrace the idea only when it is ready to inform us about its nature. We do not know where the idea is hiding, its location does not appear on any map, and therefore cannot be reached by any public transport. [...] we have to build our own means of transport. For me, architectural sketches are such a vehicle [...]"

    After the donation of Alfred Neumann's personal library to the Laval University School of Architecture, Professor Goerges Teyssot and Professor Samuel Bernier-Lavigne began the project for the valorization of the legacy. Their initiative led three main results: the realization of furniture, inspired by Neumann's work, to accommodate his books; a catalog including texts by Alfred Neumann, Eva-Marie Neumann, George Teyssot and Samuel Bernier-Lavigne; an exhibition of the rare books from Neumann's collection.

  • "Mit königlichem Segen Polizeikaserne von Zvi Hecker am Flughafen Amsterdam"

    1 / 1

    The Koningin Máximakazerne featured on line on BauNetz.
    The project brings together all the branches of the Royal Military Police (Koninklijke Marechaussee, KMar) responsible for maintaining security at Schiphol Amsterdam Airport.
    The KMar project is a multi-functional complex of living, working, and training facilities for an approximately 1,500 staff stationed at Schiphol Amsterdam Airport. The complex, when seen from the air and from the runways, should provide a bold architectural accent for the main entrance gate to the Netherlands.


    "The Koninging Máximakazerne is a military complex evocative of a medieval walled city with contemporary comfort." – Zvi Hecker

  • Zvi Hecker: Two Strips

    1 / 1

    Exhibition

    The installation consists of two strips, Strip A is tying together the four walls of the gallery while Strip B combines the ceiling and the floor of the room. The two strips intersect on the two short walls of the gallery. Strip A carries drawings and paintings of Zvi Hecker. Strip B exhibits the material chosen by the SCI-Arc students as representing Zvi Hecker work.

    The exhibition is an interactive work, a dialogue between the personal work of Zvi Hecker and the material assembled by students of SCI-Arc as representing his architecture.

    The two Strips A and B convert the gallery space into an active participant in the exhibition itself.

  • Why we will never be proud of the new airport of Berlin

    The Berliners watch with amazement the saga of the BBR, our new airport. As it is well known, it was scheduled to be open on May 13th, 2013 and it seems there are ever new difficulties to find a new date for its opening. A lot has been written about this unexpected and quite astonishing series of events. The general public is informed that mistakes have been found in the design and execution of the airport but no one is ready to take on the responsibilities for what has been wrongly done. The architects claim that they have done their part correctly and suggest looking for reasons beyond the architectural design. Probably the same answer one can expect from the engineers. The supervisors on site of the construction certainly believe they are well covered as they only carry on what was indicated in the plans that they have received. We don't know what really happened and maybe we will never know.

    Actually we don't need to be informed – we can make our own analysis.

    In my opinion, the failure of the airport opening is deeply rooted in the way we approach the importance of the built environment here in Berlin, particularly after the unification of Germany. I believe one can say with a degree of certainty that after the unification, no real piece of architecture was built in Berlin, no new Neue National Gallery, no new Philharmonie, no new Staat Bibliothek, I am convinced that in the conservative atmosphere of today in Berlin, Sharoun will have no chance to build the Philharmonie.

    Before the unification, Berlin was an island in the sea of communist regimes and as such had to prove its importance and its very existence. It has to be better than the world around; more visible by what it does and by what it initiates. International competitions were staged in order to choose not banality but originality. The Jewish Museum and the Jewish School are the results of these intentions, of this policy. Actually it needed more than intention only it needed careful thinking and courage to be open to new solutions.

    It also needed what is most important: to put in charge of this policy professional and knowledgeable architects like Uli Stange to whom we should be thankful for his devoted work in Senat für Bau.

    As it is well known, it is not enough to make a competition for the airport. The selection of the members of the jury is a crucial factor in the results of the competition - a mediocre jury will select (choose) a mediocre project and the effort of many talented architects is totally missed. Who knows what a masterpiece could have emerge if the site and the program of the Schloss would be open to free interpretation of excellent architects.

    Berlin following the unification became the capital of Germany, no longer an island fighting for its right to exist. The city does not feel that it needs to prove its importance – its new status became its very importance. Today, architectural banality is the way Berlin grows and expands. It derives its positive connotations not from what is done today but what was done by previous administrations that were willing and able to give chance to build to the greatest names in architecture of the twentieth century. Today, doing nothing new, we became parasites on the achievements of previous generations.

    The today's lack of vision, lack of courage is responsible in my opinion for the disaster of the new airport.

    The jury of the competition for the airport has chosen the simplest architectural banality: flat roof on forest of columns. While other countries, other cities consider their airports as the most important gates, Berlin's airport has no image to remember neither is it a gate to welcome. And this very banality also proved to be not functional. But if it would be a piece of outstanding design it would be checked thoroughly many times before approved for construction. We will not have to pay for unnecessary mistakes.

    If one would be cynical one would say that what happened is the right punishment for those who deprived Berlin of the possibility to have a new Philharmonie, new Neue National Gallery, to represent in new achievement the spirit and energy of Berlin. But unfortunately this is a punishment for all of us who have to pay for it. Sadly I don't see that Berlin will learn. Mediocrity is still considered good though BBR failed because it was considered nothing to be worried about. Even if the BBR will open one day we will never be proud of it. Hopefully it will remain a warning that banality doesn't pay.

  • Zvi Hecker Sketches

    1 / 1

    Gespräch und Buchpräsentation in der Architekturgalerie in München mit dem israelischen Architekten Zvi Hecker und Andres Lepik (Architekturmuseum TU München).

    »Ich bin ein Künstler mit dem Arbeitsgebiet Architektur«, schreibt Zvi Hecker (*1931 Krakau), der renommierte israelische Architekt mit Wohnsitz in Berlin.

    Nichts zeigt dies deutlicher als Sketches: eine Auswahl seiner Architekturzeichnungen, die als Kunstwerke für sich selbst stehen und gleichzeitig als Handbuch für einen Gestaltungsprozess dienen, der in Meisterwerken wie dem Spiral Apartment Complex, der Heinz-Galinski-Schule oder Heckers Entwürfen für ein Mountains Housing Projekt gipfelt - einem wegweisenden Werk, das schon Anfang der 90er Jahre aktuelle architektonische Fragestellungen vorwegnahm.

  • Ein neuer Platz am Brandenburger Tor

    1 / 2

    Exhibition of Zvi Hecker's design proposal for the square between Brandenburg Gate and Tiergarten

    "The Israeli architect Zvi Hecker who has been living and working in Berlin since 1991 – known for the
    Heinz-Galinski-Grundschule in Berlin – has made a visual statement for the reunification of Germany
    with his design for the square between the Brandenburg Gate and Tiergarten. This design makes this
    inhospitable location, which at the moment is primarily used for large scale events, accessible to a wide
    public from Berliners to visitors from all over the world. With the presentation of his original drawings,
    sketches and models the exhibition intends to instigate a constructive debate about the future of this
    central square."
