The conference will be held in València, Spain a beautiful city where visitors will experience thecontrast between historial-artistic heritage and the futuristic constructions, designed by David Chipperfiel, Norman Foster and Calatrava.
The conference venue is the Palacio de la Exposición. Designed by Francisco Mora Berenguer, and built as the municipal centre for the Regional Exhibition in 1909 and the National Exhibition of 1910. It is a unique building for special events and receptions. Construction took just seventy days and its modernist style evokes a peculiar neo-gothic image from the glorious medieval period of Valencian history; mixing civil gothic, religious and military architecture. Its outstanding feature is without doubt the harmony between the architecture and the sumptuary and industrial art, skilfully fusing –as in the world of Gaudí – ironwork, ceramics, glasswork and carpentry.
Address: Carrer de Galícia, 3, 46010 València, Valencia
