Daniel Lipschits
E-Z Initiative: Administration
Daniel Lipschits has a distinguished career in the fields of culture, the performing arts, visual arts and architecture. He crossed being a creative artist with being a producer, fundraiser, networker and lobbyist for innovative projects and productions.
Founder, president and CEO of the Homunculus Foundation for borders-crossing cultural project management, and it’s operational leg Millennium Productions, Daniel took on an impressive number of truly international, exciting and diverse projects from 1989 through 2000.
He conceived, produced, directed, managed and designed scores of performing arts productions, cultural exchange projects, social awareness campaigns and more. Among his commissioners were The Council of Europe, The Anne Frank House as well as the Dutch, Swiss, Israeli and Hungarian governments.
From 2000 onwards, his career in architecture spanned from working with star-architect Daniel Libeskind, to working with technological pioneer Moshe Zwarts of Amsterdam’s Zarts & Jansma, to collaborating with the Swiss based neo-dadaist Tristan Kobler of Holzer Kobler Architekturen, before venturing into the field of eco-sustainable architecture and whole-systems design.
His oeuvre ranges from designing components of Central Europe’s largest wellness center & shopping mall ‘Westside’ in Bern, Switzerland, to a holistic retrofit of one of Bologna’s smallest apartments.
In 2005, inspired by his first visit to South America, Daniel conceived the Artecoop platform and vision, which he subsequently founded in Switzerland.
At present Daniel is directing a number of international programs and projects, forwarding the integration of cultural engineering, preservation and rehabilitation of the natural environment and the design of innovative distributive utility infrastructure in the built environment.
