Followers of modern architecture will seize this opportunity to examine an important new building by master architect Max Dudler. The Jacob und Wilhelm Grimm Centre -- Germany's largest open-access library, which opened in 2009 at Berlin's Humboldt University -- is a conceptual work of urban architecture of sculptural proportions. The design reflects the university's status as a world-renowned institution with a long tradition yet a modern approach to instruction and research. The ten-story structure has already become a Berlin landmark. At the center of the building, shielded from the noise of the city, is the Central Reading Room, with seating for 252 readers. In total the library has over one thousand public work spaces in a variety of rooms.

Max Dudler (born in 1949 in Altenrhein/Switzerland) worked in the office of Oswald Matthias Ungers after his architectural studies at the Stadelschule in Frankfurt/Main and the Hochschule der Kunste in Berlin. In 1986 he founded an architectural collective together with Karl Dudler and Pete Welbergen. In 1992 he opened his own offices in Berlin, Frankfurt and Zurich. In addition to his architectural practice Dudler is also always called upon to serve as a lecturer, for instance at the University of Dortmund, the Academy of Art in Dusseldorf and the University of Bologna. Dr. J. Christoph Burkle is an architectural critic and publication director of Niggli Verlag. Milan Bulaty is director of the Central Library of the Humboldt University Berlin.
