Brings together works of art and science to raise awareness of the ecological restoration of land.
Land is a life-sustaining link between Earth’s climate and biodiversity and offers a wide variety of ecosystems that need to be restored and preserved. Half of humanity is already affected by the negative effects of industrial overuse of soils and massive land degradation. This volume vividly focuses on this burning issue of our time and opulently presents works by important contemporary artists. With contributions from authors from the global North and South, including Indigenous perspectives on the topic of renaturalization, this richly illustrated volume inspires people to take action.
Featured artists include Julius von Bismarck, Stefanie Bühler, Julian Charrière, Agnes Denes, Ximena Garrido-Lecca, Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg, Nancy Graves, Jan Hostettler, Cao Fei, Richard Long, Claes Oldenburg, Nohemi Perez, and Monika Sosnowska.
