Jewish Museum of Berlin3

The Memory Void, one of the symbolic spaces on the ground level of the Libeskind building, includes the installation Shalekhet (Fallen Leaves) by Menashe Kadishman. More than 10,000 faces with open mouths, cut from heavy round iron plates, cover the floor of the ground floor void. The installation is a gift from Dieter and Si Rosenkranz. To walk on the floor of this void is to walk on these faces.

Space as a word, can be used to cover everything from the most distant planets and the molecular structure inside the smallest structures in the universe to the space of the soul, which encloses . . . What does it enclose? (Jewish spirituality quote: Daniel Libeskind).
