Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art in the USA
World fame came to Hadid after the construction of the Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art in the USA
The building is integrated into the city, creating dynamic forms that foster a dialogue between the urban environment and the structures within it
A unique feature of the building was its large floor-to-ceiling windows, which invited passersby to look inside the atrium
involving them in the museum experience
The Rosenthal Museum marks the beginning of the era of Zaha’s buildings, in which her ideas begin to become apparent. However, this event was preceded by the nickname Diva, which critics and a dissatisfied public attributed to Zaha Hadid
Hadid was not confused —at the opening of the museum she dressed the bureau staff in T-shirts with the inscription “They would call me a diva if I were a man,” —with this gesture she makes a curtsy with a low bow to the femme community and wipes the nose of those who have criticized her ideas for so long
As an architect, Zaha had worked for 13 years before her first building became reality. Despite the fame and acclaim she achieved, along with her unique architectural style - which was often viewed as an exclusively male domain -
she went through fire and water,
but didn't give in a yota
of her talent, view and character
to the expectations of other people
recognition during my career. Prejudice and mistrust always surfaced, but most often when success seemed especially close"
