Ze'ev Rechter
Biography
Rechter was born in the
École des Ponts et Chaussées in Paris to further his studies. It was then that he became an enthusiastic disciple of Le Corbusier. Upon his return, he settled in Tel Aviv and founded the Hug group of architects together with Arieh Sharon and Josef Neufeld, who had also returned from studies and work in Europe.[4]
Rechter died in 1960. The Beersheeba Municipal Conservatory was built many years later, in 1975, following designs by Rechter and Moshe Zarhy.
Family
Rechter was married to Paula Singer, with whom he had three children: Yaakov, who also became an architect, and two daughters, Aviva and Tuti.[5]
