Renzo Piano, a renowned architect, has achieved international acclaim for his collaborative design of the Pompidou Center in Paris, which has been hailed as a groundbreaking masterpiece by The New York Times. 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 stunning nine-story structure located in Manhattan's Meatpacking District. His architectural touch has also left a lasting impact on London's skyline with the iconic Shard. At the age of 84, Piano remains vibrant and gracious, and his recent portfolio is more impressive than ever. In an exclusive conversation with the author, Piano revealed his belief that, as one grows older, one can discover a "red thread" that connects one building to another over time. For him, this thread revolves around the concept of 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 Lisbon, London, Toronto, and Geneva, as well as humanitarian endeavors such as the Emergency Children's Surgical Hospital in Entebbe, Uganda, and the Children's Hospice in Bologna, Italy. This extensively revised edition, based on the massive XXL monograph, presents Piano's definitive career overview in an accessible format, accompanied by photographs, sketches, and plans.
