The Felix Nussbaum Haus- In 1996 Libeskind proposed the plan “Museum Without Exit, and it was completed a few years later in 1998. This building houses around 160 paintings of the German- Jewish painter Felix Nussbaum. The building consists of three different materials; oak, concrete, and metal, each with a different meaning. The oak symbolizes Felix’s prewar art. The concrete cuts through the oak and houses the the paintings Felix created while hiding from the Jews. Libeskind designed small tight corridors in this part of the museum for the visitors to feel the same “tightness” and “crampedness” Felix felt while painting this pictures. The metal aspect of the building shows the artist’s new style after surviving such traumatic experiences.
