Dame Zaha Mohammad Hadid DBE RA was an architect known for her expressive and curvaceous designs. The architect received her formal education at the Architectural Association School of Architecture in London with Rem Koolhaas (Dutch, b. 1944), Elia Zenghelis (Greek, b. 1937), and Bernard Tschumi (Swiss, b. 1944). Hadid’s works do not fit neatly into any one architectural movement. However, she is often associated with Deconstructivism and parametricism. Her notable projects include the MAXXI in Rome, Italy; the Maggie’s Centre in Fife, Scotland; and the Contemporary Arts Center in Cincinnati, Ohio.
