Un sistema de agua, inspirado en la antigua ingeniería árabe, fluye entre las galerías internas y las áreas externas del museo refrescando los espacios.

Jean-Luc Martinez, presidente del Louvre en París, que viajó a Abu Dabi para la inauguración, explicó que el museo se había concebido “para abrirse a los demás” y “entender la diversidad” en “un mundo multipolar”. El Louvre de Abu Dabi es “un museo universal, el primero del mundo árabe”, declaró.

Al contrario de los demás museos cuyo recorrido propone una clasificación por estilos o civilizaciones, éste expone los temas universales y las influencias comunes entre las culturas, desde la prehistoria hasta nuestros días. En la misma sala se pueden ver por ejemplo un hoja del Corán Azul realizado en el siglo IX, una torá yemení de 1498 y dos volúmenes de una biblia gótica del siglo XIII. Pero la estrella del museo, según sus promotores, es “La belle ferronnière”, un cuadro de Leonardo da Vinci prestado por el Louvre de París. Hace unas pocas semanas fue subastado el cuadro “Salvator Mundi” del mismo Leonardo por 450 mi-

me 180 meters in diameter, composed of 7,850 metal stars, which filters the sun’s rays creating what Jean Nouvel calls a “rain of light”. A design that recalls the palm groves and the souks. A water system, inspired by ancient Arabic engineering, flows between the internal galleries and the external areas of the museum, refreshing the spaces.

Trece museos franceses colaboran con el nuevo museo, aportando su experiencia y prestando 300 obras, incluido un autorretrato de Vincent van Gogh.

El nuevo museo es fruto de un acuerdo intergubernamental firmado en 2007 entre París y Abu Dabi por un plazo de 30 años.

El contrato, que incluye poder usar la marca del Louvre y la organización de exposiciones temporales, se eleva 1.159 millones de dólares, sin contar el coste real de la construcción del museo en los Emiratos, que nadie quiere revelar. El proyecto suscitó una polémica en Francia, donde algunas voces se indignaron ante el aspecto “mercantil” de la operación y “la venta de la marca” Le Louvre La colección permanente de los Emiratos cuenta con unas 600 obras, de las cuales se exponen 235 en la apertura.

Se tomaron medidas excepcionales para garantizar la seguridad y la conservación de las obras, en un país donde las temperaturas superan los 40ºC en verano.

Jean-Luc Martinez, president of the Louvre in Paris, who traveled to Abu Dhabi for the inauguration, explained that the museum had been conceived “to open up to others” and “to understand diversity” in “a multipolar world”. The Louvre in Abu Dhabi is “a universal museum, the first in the Arab world,” he said.

Contrary to the other museums whose itinerary proposes a classification by styles or civilizations, it exposes the universal themes and the common influences between cultures, from prehistory to the present day. In the same room you can see for example a sheet of the Blue Qur’an made in the ninth century, a Yemeni torah of 1498 and two volumes of a Gothic bible of the thirteenth century.

But the star of the museum, according to its promoters, is “La belle ferronnière”, a painting by Leonardo da Vinci provided by the Louvre in Paris.

A few days ago Leonardo da Vinci’s Salvatori Mundi painting was auctioned in London for 450 million dollars. The crown prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohamed bin Salam was the one who made the purchase through a third with the intention of permanently hanging the painting in the Louvre of Abu Dhabi, as announced by the museum on December 7.

10 | ENERO/ JUNARY 2018 | No. 341 El Louvre de Abu Dabi, cuya apertura se aplazó varias veces por problemas de financiación, es el primero en abrir sus puertas entre los tres museos previstos en el distrito cultural de Saadiyat. Deberían seguir el Guggenheim, concebido por el arquitecto canadiense Frank Gehry, y el Zayed National Museum, confiado al británico Norman Foster.

Jean Nouvel

Thirteen French museums collaborate with the new museum, contributing their experience and lending 300 works of art, including a self-portrait by Vincent van Gogh.

The new museum is the result of an intergovernmental agreement signed in 2007 between Paris and Abu Dhabi for a period of 30 years.

The contract, which includes being able to use the Louvre brand and the organization of temporary exhibitions, stands at 1,159 million dollars, not counting the real cost of building the museum in the Emirates, which nobody wants to reveal. The project sparked a controversy in France, where some voices were outraged at the “commercial” aspect of the operation and “the sale of the brand” Le Louvre The permanent collection of the Emirates has some 600 works of art, of which 235 are exhibited at the opening.

Exceptional measures were taken to guarantee the safety and conservation of the works, in a country where temperatures exceed 40ºC in summer.

The Louvre in Abu Dhabi, whose opening was postponed several times due to funding problems, is the first to open its doors among the three museums planned in the cultural district of Saadiyat. They should follow the Guggenheim, conceived by the Canadian architect Frank Gehry, and the Zayed National Museum, entrusted to the British Norman Foster.

Mitos y realidades de la Zona Federal

U

Myths and truths about beachfront properties

n gran interés despierta en los inversionistas y agentes inmobiliarios la situación legal de las propiedades localizadas frente al mar y que, por lo tanto, colindan con la zona federal marítimo terrestre, ya que el frente marino es el que les da valor y plusvalía. La información que circula sobre esta materia muchas veces es contradictoria, a pesar de estar claramente regulada en la Ley Mexicana.

Que es la zona federal marítimo terrestre?

La Ley General de Bienes Nacionales define a la zona federal marítimo terrestre como la franja de 20 metros de tierra firma, transitable y contigua a la playa, que por su naturaleza jurídica, no puede ser objeto de transacción comercial.

Como puedo protegerme al comprar una propiedad que colinda con la playa?

Primero hay que conocer perfectamente la situación legal en la que se encuentra la propiedad. Para ello, debe solicitarse al propietario copia de la concesión y del pago de los derechos de zona federal.

En caso de existir construcciones en la propiedad federal, se deberá contar con un permiso expedido por la Secretaría del Medio Ambiente o bien, una constancia de haber regularizado las construcciones ante la Procuraduría del Medio Ambiente.

El adquiriente debe obtener un levantamiento topográfico que delimite la zona federal con precisión, para determinar cuál será el objeto de la transacción; es decir, cuál es la superficie de propiedad privada susceptible de ser transmitida y cuál la superficie de zona federal, que no podrá ser adquirida en propiedad, pero sí podrá ser concesionada Por qué me conviene solicitar la concesión?

En este punto me gustaría compartir dos historias reales que me han tocado observa. El primer caso fue en Sayulita, donde, aprovechando que un títu-

lo de concesión se venció y su beneficiario no solicitó la renovación se instaló en la playa un restaurante de mariscos. El segundo caso en Vallarta una persona compró un departamento y nunca se preocupó por revisar la concesión. En la zona colindante se encontraba un puesto de frutas en situación irregular. Un día, el dueño del puesto obtuvo recursos económicos y construyó dos niveles que bloquean la vista al mar desde el departamento. Si los propietarios del predio colindante hubieran contado con su título de concesión en regla, no tendría que enfrentar estos problemas, que son complejos, largos y caros. ¿Cuál es la situación actual?

Actualmente, las modificaciones a las leyes han hecho el trámite más corto para recibir una concesión, pero a su vez lo han complicado, ya que ahora es necesario ser un abogado especialista para comprender y coordinar los aspectos legales, topográficos y ecológicos que se involucran. Usted puede obtener un título de concesión para preservar la playa en el estado en que se encuentra; o bien, puede solicitar un permiso federal de construcción para ampliar su propiedad construida o hacer nuevas construcciones.

Si vende su propiedad, puede ceder los derechos del título de concesión a favor del nuevo dueño, siempre y cuando se apegue a los procedimientos legales diseñados para dar seguridad jurídica a los vecinos de la zona federal.

Las Leyes Ecológicas Mexicanas están diseñada para proteger a nacionales y extranjeros por igual, por ello, es necesario conocerla para obtener su beneficio y protección.

reat interest has awakened among investors and real estate agents in regards to the oceanfront properties, which inevitably neighbor the maritime terrestrial federal zone, since it is precisely the beachfront what provides value and surplus to them. The information surrounding this matter is most of the time contradictory, even though it is clearly ruled in the Mexican Law. What is the maritime terrestrial federal zone?

The General Law on National Assets defines the maritime terrestrial federal zone as the 20 meter strip of passable land, adjacent to the beach that due to its nature, cannot be object of commercial transaction.

How can I protect myself when purchasing property adjacent to the beach?

First, you have to know the exact legal status of the property by asking the owner for a copy of the concession and the payments made for the rights to the federal zone.

In case there are constructions on the federal property, the owner should count with a permit issued by the Secretary of Environment, or else, a document stating that said constructions have been regularized before the Prosecutors Office for the Environment.

The buyer needs to have a topographical survey that shows precisely the limits of the federal zone. That will be important to establish what the object of the transaction will be; this is, what is the surface of the private property suitable to be transferred and what

is the federal zone that cannot be acquired as property, but can be achieved in concession.

Why should I ask for the concession?

I would like to share two real stories that I had the opportunity to witness. The first case was in Sayulita, where a person installed a seafood restaurant in the beach, taking advantage that the concession title had expired and that the concessionary didn’t renew it. The second case occurred in Puerto Vallarta. Someone purchased an apartment and never bothered to review the concession documents.

On the adjacent federal zone there was an illegal fruit stand. One day the owner of the stand got some financial resources and built two levels that now blocks the ocean view from the apartment.

If the owner of the adjacent land had his concession documents in order, he wouldn’t have to face these problems, which are complex, long and expensive.

What is the current situation?

Nowadays, the modification to the Laws have shortened the procedure to achieve the concession, but at the same time they made it more complex, since now it is necessary to be an attorney with expertise in this field to understand and coordinate the legal, topographic and environmental aspects involved in this matter. You can obtain a concession title to preserve the beach in its natural state; or else, you can request a federal permit to build and extend your existing constructions or make new ones.

If you sell your property, you may transfer the rights of the concession to the new owner, provided that you stick to the legal procedures designed to provide legal security to the federal zone neighbors.

The Mexican Ecological Laws are designed to protect nationals and foreigners alike, and it is necessary to acknowledge them to achieve the benefits and protection.
