The Art of Waiting: Gianni Berengo Gardin photographs Renzo Piano An exhibition at the Italian Cultural Institute, September 10 -October 10, 2019 Two talents, two creative practices, two different relationships to time—yet one remarkable record: these 33 images of buildings designed by Renzo Piano and photographed by Gianni Berengo Gardin comprise the first-ever exhibition in the United States to present the story of a fruitful, two-decade collaboration between photographer and architect that began in 1979 and resulted in nearly 10,000 images, from which Gardin himself has chosen the photographs that will be on display at the Italian Cultural Institute until October 10th.

In 1979, Gianni Berengo Gardin started his long-lasting collaboration with Renzo Piano taking pictures of the construction sites where the most celebrated architectures of the Genoese architect were rising up.
