Los fondos marinos siguen siendo grandes desconocidos. Frente a los paisajes terrestres, más accesibles y familiares, la mayor parte de ellos permanecen inexplorados, siendo un enorme desafío para la investigación científica. Este libro da a conocer los paisajes submarinos de distintas zonas del Mediterráneo peninsular: unos fondos singulares y poco explorados, formados por crinoideos (animales exclusivamente marinos) y maërl (agregaciones de algas marinas calcáreas), que se hallan entre los 20 y 200 metros de profundidad. De un gran interés ecológico por su rica biodiversidad de fauna y flora, son también fondos muy vulnerables, al estar sometidos a una intensa actividad pesquera y a distintas perturbaciones medioambientales, de ahí la necesidad y urgencia de su protección, y de lograr un equilibrio entre conservación y explotación. Imperativos que adquieren una mayor relevancia al tratarse de hábitats que son una abundante fuente de bienes y servicios, desde la provisión de alimento hasta la mitigación de los efectos del cambio climático, contribuyendo a la salud y bienestar planetarios y humanos. Escrita por un equipo de investigación multidisciplinar en ciencias del mar y gracias a las insólitas filmaciones captadas por el vehículo submarino ROV LIROPUS 2000, como parte de la Campaña Oceanográfica CriMa (ICM/CSIC), esta obra desvela las características y peculiaridades de estos ecosistemas marinos.

A beautiful book on the famed Chinati Foundation in Marfa, Texas The Chinati Foundation, a world-famous destination for large-scale contemporary art, was founded by Donald Judd (1928-1994) to preserve and present a select number of permanent installations that were inextricably linked to the surrounding landscape in Marfa, Texas. This handsome publication, first published in 2010 and now available with a new chapter devoted to the permanent installation by Robert Irwin that was inaugurated in 2016 and a new foreword by Jenny Moore, director of the Chinati Foundation, describes how Judd developed his ideas of the role of art and museums from the early 1960s onward, culminating in the creation of Chinati. The individual installations featured here include work by John Chamberlain, Dan Flavin, David Rabinowitch, Roni Horn, Ilya Kabakov, Richard Long, Ingólfur Arnarsson, Carl Andre, Claes Oldenburg and Coosje Van Bruggen, and John Wesley, as well as by Judd himself. The book also features a complete catalogue of the collection and writings by Judd relating to Chinati and Marfa. Published in association with the Chinati Foundation/La Fundación Chinati
