瓦伦西亚艺术科学城

超妹大爱

艺术科学城是由巴伦西亚的设计师圣地亚哥?卡拉特拉瓦（Santiago Calatrava）所设计的，并且在1996年7月开始动工。2004年建成并投入使用.。

瓦伦西亚文化与艺术部门发言人Maximo Buch表示，艺术与科学之城存在“建造缺陷”，这栋八年前完成的工程目前的状况不断恶化，由于其穹顶处的大片砖块脱落而取消了前不久本应举行的圣诞节艺术表演。报道还指出，这些建造上的问题从去年开始初露端倪，由上千块小马赛克瓷砖铺筑而成的光滑穹顶开始出现严重的龟裂。

Santiago Calatrava is facing legal action from his native city as the dazzling City of Arts and Sciences complex begins to fall apart just eight years after inauguration, reports the Daily Telegraph.

The City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia, inaugurated eight years ago, is already falling apart and regional authorities have said they will sue the architect responsible.

In late December chunks of the mosaic fa?ade of the centerpiece opera house fell off in high winds and authorities were forced cancel scheduled Christmas performances and to close the building to the public until further notice.、

Authorities are laying the blame of the rapid deterioration of buildings within the complex at the foot of Santiago Calatrava, who was paid close to 100 million euros for a project that came in at four times over budget with a final price tag of over 1 billion euros.

Maximo Buch, the regional government spokesman responsible for Arts and Culture announced that Valencia would pursue legal action against Santiago Calatrava and his architectural firm for the cost of repairs blaming “construction defects”.

Also, according to world-architects.com, Santiago Calatrava paid 3.3 million Euros to Oviedo, Spain, to settle a dispute after a structural collapse; he is being sued over persistent leaks in a winery in Avala, also in Spain; and in Bilbao, a pedestrian bridge he designed has been the source of numerous injuries and compensation paid by the city.
