ConstructionINNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS TO MEET THE CHALLENGES OF MODERN CONSTRUCTION

The quality of building construction is no longer limited to the mandatory resistance and stability, fire protection or health and environmental requirements. Today, this concept extends to all of the aspects related to the wellbeing of the people who use or inhabit the buildings including comfort, noise protection, energy efficiency, digital connectivity, thermal insulation or accessibility for people with impaired mobility.

The architects and engineers who design them place a great deal of emphasis on creative and functional

values, thereby converting their work into elements of social and personal prestige. This poses very important challenges for builders, who are often faced with highly complex structures and plans that pose daunting challenges. ACCIONA Infrastructure is backed by years of experience in the construction of corporate offices, hotels, communications towers, museums, conference halls, sporting facilities, transportation terminals and stations, medical buildings and hospitals, trade fair centers, schools and universities.

“El GrACCIONA is an Official Sponsor

eco”of the ‘El Greco 2014’ commemorations

ACCIONA and the Fundación El Greco 2014 [El Greco 2014 Foundation] have signed a colaboration agreement whereby ACCIONA joined the team of Official Sponsors of the programme of events to mark the 4th Centenary of the death of El Greco.

ACCIONA will be contributing to a cultural project designed and organized by the Foundation and scheduled for 2014. This ambitious Toledo-based (Spain) initiative will feature a number of commemorative events on a regional, national end international scale. ACCIONA has taken on a commitment with a long-term cultural and social project at the regional level. In addition, the Company is now the Official Sponsor of a sculpture project that Cristina Iglesias has been comissioned for Toledo.

The commemoration in 2014 of the death of El Greco has been officially declared “an event of

exceptional public interest”. The Fundación El Greco 2014 was set up on May 13th 2010, and the Honorary Chairs are Their Majesties the King and Queen of Spain.

DOMÉNIKOS THEOTOKÓPOULOS (Candia, Crete; 1541 - Toledo, Spain; 1614) El Greco, the painter who brought together the Greek painting tradition, Venetian color, and Roman design, enjoyed a fantastic and ever-changing career as an artist in Crete, Roma and Toledo; in this latter city he spent more than half of his life. In Spain, the so-called “Greek of Toledo” took his place as the country’s most singular artist during the reign of Philip II and Philip III. He amazed spectators with his complex compositions, his bright colors, his interplay of light and dark, transparency and reflections, his naturalistic skill when representing fabrics or cloudscapes, his boundless

imagination when it came to portraying the supernatural, or his ability to breathe life into pictorial fictions. Spain had never seen anything quite like El Greco’s work, and his complex, intellectualized and overwhelming art caused amazement and admiration but also uneasiness and rejection, above all because he eschewed convention and deliberately flaunted his courage and difference. El Greco used his brushes to create a new world of religious imagery and a revolutionary way of treating and displaying both divine and earthly beings, with such tremendous power that, even today, we are quick to recognize the works of the “Greek of Toledo”.
