Book excerpt: A sumptuous portrait comprising texts and images of the prestigious complex 565 Broome Soho in New York, designed by the Renzo Piano firm. This volume is dedicated to the 565 Broome Street skyscraper, the first residential building conceived by Renzo Piano and designed by the Renzo Piano Building Workshop in the city of New York. Developed by Bizzi & Partners, the double tower occupies a corner space in the SoHo district, close to the Hudson River. Rich and fascinating iconography and a text by Federico Bucci and Carol Willis describe the design, the main features of the building, and how it relates to the city and the light that surrounds it in a unique way. The photographic selection is divided into thematic chapters, starting from the representation of the building’s urban context and then illustrating the different parts of the project, the formal and structural characteristics of the towers, and the interiors. It also describes the contemporary artwork by Susumu Shingu that occupies the space between the towers.

Download or read book Piano written by Philip Jodidio and published by Taschen America Llc. This book was released on 2014 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Certains architectes possèdent un style reconnaissable entre mille. Ce qui différencie Piano des autres, c'est qu'il exprime un ensemble d'idées cohérentes au travers d'une extraordinaire diversité de moyens. Voilà pourquoi la griffe de Piano ne se discerne pas au premier coup d'oeil dans des réalisations aussi uniques que le Centre Pompidou, le New York Times Building ou l'aéroport du Kansai d'Osaka. Chaque projet est une renaissance, comme l'explique Piano : "Ce qu'il y a de merveilleux avec l'architecture, c'est cette impression qu'à chaque fois la vie recommence". Cette monographie actualisée, illustrée de photographies, de dessins et de plans, couvre toute la carrière de Piano jusqu'à ce jour, et toutes les expressions de sa singulière esthétique. Elle comprend de nouvelles photos de l'aile moderne de l'Art Institute de Chicago, de l'extension du Kimbelle Art Museum de Fort Worth, au Texas, ainsi qu'un avant-goût des projets qui l'occupent aujourd'hui, comme le Valetta City Gate de La Valette, à Malte.

Download or read book Orthographs written by Yiorgis Yerolymbos and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This stunning photographic essay traces the development of Renzo Piano's Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center, a multifunctional complex for arts, education, and entertainment opening in 2017 in Athens. Photographer Yiorgis Yerolymbos finds intrigue and beauty in the grit of the construction site, where for nearly a decade he has meticulously recorded the ephemeral forms that underlie and foretell the shape of the future landmark. Deriving its title from architectural orthographic drawings, Orthographs tracks the progress of the building's construction site against Piano's visionary projections and plans. This beautiful volume offers rare, behind-the-scenes access to the work performed and the land and materials moved in the service of turning vision into reality. The large format invites readers to immerse themselves in Yerolymbos's compelling photography, and texts by acclaimed architects and critics hail the importance of the Center and its role in transforming the physical and cultural topography of Athens.

Today he is acknowledged the pre-eminent designer in this field, entrusted with the collections of the most distinguished art institutions in the world. Renzo Piano Museums presents a portfolio of eighteen museum projects, beginning with the revolutionary Pompidou Center in Paris and continuing to the most current designs for the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sarajevo. Featured are the Menil Collection in Houston, the Beyeler Foundation on the outskirts of Basel, Switzerland, the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas, the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, and the Morgan Library and Museum in New York. Lush color photographs and handsome presentation drawings and plans convey the form and detail of these extraordinary buildings. Complementing the visual presentation is an essay by Victoria Newhouse, which surveys Piano's museum work and places it in a historical context. In particular, she focuses on the key elements of Piano's aesthetic: natural light, transparency, and the piazza or gathering space. All were introduced at the Pompidou Center and continue to inform the designs.
