Section, 1964 an abstract sculpture by Yehiel Shemi (chosen by the
1964 ,‫חתך‬ architects), and Avraham Ofek’s wall painting Return to
Zion (added in 1976 without the consent of the architects).
The library’s top two floors, which hold the books and
reading halls, are arranged around the interior courtyard,
which partially overlooks the building’s front façade and

In 1984, the firm completed the Gross wing, which
houses the Wiener Library. Situated near the Sourasky

received the Rokach Architecture prize for the Sourasky
Library in 1970.
