Résumé:

"'The array of buildings by Renzo Piano is staggering in scope and comprehensive in the diversity of scale, material, and form. He is truly an architect whose sensibilities represent the widest range of this and earlier centuries'. Such was the description of Renzo Piano given in the Pritzker Prize jury citation as it bestowed the prestigious award on him in 1998. Whereas some architects have a signature style, what sets Piano apart is that he seeks simply to apply a coherent set of ideas to new projects in extraordinarily different ways. 'One of the great beauties of architecture is that, each time, it is like life starting all over again', Piano says. 'Like a movie director doing a love story, a Western, or a murder mystery, a new world confronts an architect with each project'. This explains why it takes more than a superficial glance to recognize Piano's fingerprints on such various projects as the Pompidou Center in Paris (1971-1977), the Kansai airport in Osaka, Japan (1988-1994), and the Jean-Marie Tjibaou Cultural Center in Nouméa, New Caledonia (1991-1998). This stunning monograph, illustrated with photographs, sketches, and plans, covers Piano's career to date. Also included are sneak peeks at Piano's current projects, such as the New York Times tower, a 52-story skyscraper to be built in Times Square, and the 66-story London Bridge tower, which is set to be Europe's tallest building"--Bookjacket.
