Renzo Piano, a renowned architect, has achieved international acclaim for his collaborative design of the Pompidou Center in Paris, which The New York Times has hailed as a groundbreaking architectural masterpiece. Since then, Piano has continued to create iconic cultural spaces, including the Modern Wing of the Art Institute of Chicago and the Whitney Museum of American Art, a nine-story asymmetrical structure in Manhattan's Meatpacking District featuring both indoor and outdoor galleries. His architectural touch has also transformed the London skyline with the Shard, the tallest building in the European Union. At the age of 81, Piano remains vibrant and kind, and his recent portfolio is more impressive than ever. In an exclusive conversation with the author, Piano revealed his belief in the concept of a "fil rouge," a red thread that connects one building to another over time. For him, it is all about lightness and the art of building. Piano's career spans a vast array of projects, including newly built museums in Athens and Santander, ongoing works in Los Angeles, Moscow, Beirut, and Istanbul, as well as humanitarian initiatives such as the Emergency Children's Surgery Center in Entebbe, Uganda, and the Children's Hospice in Bologna, Italy. This XXL-sized monograph, packed with over 200 new pages illustrated with photographs, sketches, and plans, encompasses Piano's entire career to date and the many manifestations of his unique aesthetic.
