„Piano. Complete Works 1966–Today. 2021 Edition“ - updated with many recently completed projects, this monograph is jam-packed with photographs, sketches, and plans that span Renzo Piano’s entire career to date. It includes works like the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in LA and the San Giogrio Bridge in Genoa, as well as other newly finished projects like the Chāteau La Coste Art Gallery and the Paris Courthouse. At the age of 84, the Italian maestro retains all of his enthusiasm and kindness—and his recent roster is more impressive than ever. As he confided to the author, “I think at a certain age, one can discover that there is what the French call the ‘fil rouge,’ a kind of red thread that relates one building to another over time. In my case, I believe it is about lightness and the art of building.” From freshly built museums in Athens and Santander; ongoing works in Lisbon, London, Toronto, and Geneva; to such humanitarian projects as the Emergency Children’s Surgical Hospital in Entebbe, Uganda, and the Children’s Hospice in Bologna, Italy, Piano’s career is a thrilling journey through the beauty and very essence of architecture.
