Book Description
軽快さという技巧 署名がわりの独特なスタイルを持つ建築家がいる一方で、レンゾ・ピアノを際立たせているのは、新しいプロジェクトのたびに、首尾一貫したアイディアを実に多岐にわたる形で採り入れようと模索している点だ。「建築の素晴らしさのひとつは、毎回、人生がもう一度始まるように思えるところ」とピアノは語っている。「映画監督がラブストーリーやウェスタンや殺人ミステリーを撮るように、建築家はプロジェクトのたびに新しい世界に直面する」。パリのポンピドゥー・センター（1971-77）や大阪の関西国際空港（1990-94）、ニューカレドニア・ヌメアのチバウ文化センター（1993-98）など、ピアノのプロジェクトにはさまざまなものがあるが、その表面を一瞥しただけでは彼の特徴を見つけられない理由を、この言葉が説明している。
写真やスケッチ、設計図を豊富に使った魅力的な本作品集は、ピアノの現在までのキャリアを紹介するもの。加えて、タイムズスクエアに建設中の52階建てのニューヨークタイムスタワーや、欧州でもっとも高いビルとなる80階建てのロンドンブリッジタワーなど、ピアノの現在進行中のプロジェクトも垣間見ることができる。

内容説明
The mechanics of lightness "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 by the Pritzker Prize Jury citation as they 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 (1971-77), the Kansai airport in Osaka, Japan (1990-94), and the Tjibaou Cultural Center in Noumea, New Caledonia (1993-1998). This stunning monograph, illustrated by photographs, sketches, and plans, covers Piano's career to date. Also included are sneak peeks at Piano's current projects, including the New York Times Tower, a 52-story skyscraper to be built in Times Square, and the 80-story London Bridge Tower, which is set to be Europe's tallest building.
