The Power of the Archive. Renzo Piano Building Workshop
Renzo Piano Building Workshop, with the original music by Fabrizio Campanelli, illustrates the birth, structure, set-up and relations with the Renzo Piano Foundation and the Renzo Piano Building Workshop, the purpose and the goals of the Archive. Drafts, sketches, models, renderings, drawings, particular techniques of completed structures – exhibited in the Renzo Piano Foundation but above all housed in the 3000 square meters of a converted factory in Genoa. A place of experimentation, revealed through the testimony of those who preserve it, systemise it and experience it day by day. The Renzo Piano Building Workshop Archive is a metaphor for a sea port: where goods come and go, and every departure and every return bring something new with them, maybe something unexpected, that enriches its content and the potential for communication.
