Zaha Hadid: Groundbreaking British-Iraqi Architect and Artist

Dame Zaha Hadid, is recognized world-wide as one of the most inspired and influential architects of the period from 1990 to her death in 2016. From the outset she sought to make her buildings move beyond the accepted expressions of space and form. They were also expressions of a visual emotion and movement. She brought the same concepts to her work as an artist – especially in her sculptural works, as here, which also have a strong link to her architectural models and concept schemes.
