Architect Zaha Hadid, scheduled to speak at TED2007 in March, today unveiled plans for a stunning performing arts center in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. The center encompasses five individual theaters, and will be one of five major cultural institutions on the new cultural district of Saadiyat Island. “It’s an inspiration from nature, and an organic design,” Hadid told The New York Times in “Celebrity Architects Reveal a Daring Cultural Xanadu for the Arab World.” Hadid will speak during the final session at TED2007: Imagined Futures.
