1. Watermarks, Water’s Heritage conference, October 2011 – call for contributions: AMENDMENT to procedure for contributions
In response to queries, the Watermarks Conference Committee has changed its Call for Contributions. The Committee will not referee papers before the conference but will treat all proposals as abstracts for formal papers, the standard approach for Australia ICOMOS conferences in the past. A selected number of papers will be blind refereed after the conference for publication in Historic Environment, as usual. The Committee thanks those people who have already made a contribution, and will contact them to discuss this change. The arrangements for snapshots are unchanged. The Committee looks forward to receiving more contributions for formal papers and snapshots. If you have any queries, please email Dr David Jones.

2. Australia ICOMOS Contact Point – ICOMOS General Assembly, Paris 28 November-2 December 2011: Looking for a volunteer!
For past General Assemblies (GA), attending Australian members have benefited immensely from the efforts of an Australian co-ordinator and contact point. The role of this person has been primarily to collect names and contacts for those planning on attending and to act as a point of contact and communication exchange in Paris for our various attempts to get our Australian contingent together. The latter involves gatherings for strategic discussions in relation to voting, resolutions etc, and the arrangement of an Australian dinner. We usually include our New Zealand colleagues in these invitations, and my limited experience is that there is a growing number who appear eager to nominate themselves as honorary Australians for the night of the dinner! We are looking for a volunteer who is planning on attending the Paris GA and would like to take on this co-ordinating role. There will of course be others on the ground to assist with arrangements and the dissemination of information. If you are interested in taking on this role or have any queries could you please send me an email or ring on 0409 344 598.
With thanks,
Jane Harrington

3. International Day for Monuments and Sites event in NSW, Sunday 3 April
In recognition of the 2011 International Day for Monuments and Sites celebrating Heritage of Water (actual date 18 April), NSW members of Australia ICOMOS and their families are invited to an open day at Cataract Dam on Sunday 3rd April. The day will include a presentation from Sydney Catchment Authority Environmental Officers regarding the methodology and practicalities of conserving a working dam site; behind the scenes access of Cataract Manor and grounds (usually closed to the public) and tour of the dam wall.
Cataract Dam was completed in 1907 and is the first of four water supply dams (including Cordeaux, Avon and Nepean Dams) in the Metropolitan Catchment Area constructed between 1903 and 1936 to provide a secure water supply to satisfy the demands of industrial, commercial and residential development of metropolitan Sydney up to c.1960. Collectively these dams represent the largest major water supply scheme undertaken in New South Wales in the first half of the twentieth century, and are one of the major engineering feats undertaken in Australia at any time.
When: Sunday 3 April 2011. Cataract Dam is open to the public each day from 10am. Why not make a day of it and bring along a picnic lunch? There are barbeques and picnic tables available within the publicly accessibly areas of the dam. The formal part of the day will start at 1.30pm with presentations, access to Cataract Manor and dam wall tour. Afternoon tea and scones is included and will be available at Cataract Manor from 3.00pm.
Where: Cataract Dam, located approximately 84 kilometres drive south-west of Sydney, is accessed off the Appin-Bulli Road. From Sydney take the Hume Highway [F5] to the Campbelltown exit and follow the Appin Road south. At Appin, take the Bulli-Wollongong Road, and turn right to Cataract Dam where signposted.
Who: We welcome Australia ICOMOS members and their families, but RSVP IS ESSENTIAL, by email to Anita Krivickas, by COB Monday 28 March 2011 to finalise logistical arrangements and catering numbers.
Cost: $5 per person to cover catering.
Thank you to Sydney Catchment Authority for generously providing access to the site and in particular to Cataract Manor.

4. International Day for Monuments and Sites Queensland event for AICOMOS members – Monday 18 April 2011
In recognition of the 2011 International Day for Monuments and Sites celebrating the Heritage of Water, Queensland members of Australia ICOMOS are invited to visit the 2010 National Heritage Award winning offices of Riddel Architecture. Designed in 1953 by Karl Langer, West’s Furniture Showroom was an influential landmark of modern design in its day that had almost been lost through neglect and detrimental change. Following the conservation work, the building was fitted out as the office premises of Riddel Architecture, who now occupy this architectural gem. Robert Riddel has kindly offered to open his office for AICOMOS members for this event. We can gather around the reconstructed goldfish pond surrounding the former Showroom and have a chat over a glass of wine. Peter Marquis-Kyle will show some pictures and give a short talk on the cultural heritage of water. Expect to hear about deluges, dams, damp, drought, distress, distraction, and lighthouses.
When: 5.30 to 6.30pm, Monday 18 April 2011
Where: Offices of Riddel Architecture, 620 Wickham Street, Fortitude Valley
Who: This event is for Australia ICOMOS members only and places will be limited, so please RSVP by email to Ruth Woods by COB Friday 15 April 2011 to finalise numbers for catering
Cost: Donation at the door to cover wine/juice/nibbles. Any profits made will be donated to the Queensland Premier’s flood and cyclone appeal

5. VICOMITES Members’ event – visit to the Murtoa Stick Shed, 16 April 2011
VISIT TO THE MURTOA STICK SHED
2PM, SATURDAY 16 APRIL 2011
Martin Zweep, Heritage Victoria has kindly organised an opportunity for members to visit the Marmalake/Murtoa Grain Store, more commonly referred to as the Murtoa Stick Shed, where essential repairs are nearing completion. Martin will explain what works that have been undertaken and why.
The Marmalake/Murtoa Grain Store, originally the No.1 Murtoa Shed, is located within the Murtoa Grain Terminal, adjacent to the grain elevator tower and railway line. The shed is 280m long, 60m wide and 19m high at the ridge with a capacity of 3.4 million bushels. The hipped corrugated iron roof of the shed is supported on approximately 600 unmilled hardwood poles set in a concrete slab floor and braced with iron tie rods. These poles are the reason for use of the term “stick shed”. With its vast gabled interior and the long rows of poles the space has been likened to the nave of a cathedral.
The Marmalake/Murtoa Grain Store is architectural significance as a rare surviving example of the ‘stick shed’ building type, a long horizontal bulk wheat storage shed constructed of timber and corrugated iron. The Marmalake/Murtoa Grain Store is the earliest and only remaining of three large sheds of this type built in Victoria during the early 1940s.
The Marmalake/Murtoa Grain Store is of historical and scientific (technical) significance for its association with an important change in the mid twentieth century from storage and transport of grain in bags to the storage and transport of loose grain in bulk. The Marmalake/Murtoa Grain Store is of historical significance for its associations with the combined impact of the Second World War and Australia’s remote geographic location on Victoria’s wheat trade, and particularly the resulting requirement for emergency bulk storage.
More detail about the building, including the full Statement of Significance, is available from here.
It will be a rare opportunity to see inside this magnificent structure.
The visit will be followed by afternoon tea at 3.30pm at the Murtoa Mechanics Institute, prepared by the Ladies Committee, at $5 per head.
People will have to make their own transport arrangements. Partners and children welcome.
Please RSVP to Megan McDougall by email by COB Friday 8 April. Please advise if you need a lift, or are able to offer a lift to other members.

6. Invitation to Australia ICOMOS members to contribute to 20th Century ISC thematic study
Invitation to Australia ICOMOS members to participate in national email discussion on
DEVELOPING A THEMATIC FRAMEWORK TO ASSESS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF 20TH CENTURY HERITAGE
Dear colleagues,
As you may already know, the ICOMOS International Scientific Committee on Twentieth Century Heritage (ISC20C) is currently developing a thematic study to assist in assessing the significance of 20th century heritage places. A small expert meeting will be held in Los Angeles in May, organised by Susan Macdonald and sponsored by the Getty Conservation Institute, and I would appreciate receiving comments and input on this topic over the next few weeks, as I prepare for attending the workshop.
We will be looking at the Australian thematic framework & relevant 20th century examples, the English Heritage post war listing framework, the TICCIH (The International Committee for the Conservation of the Industrial Heritage) framework, Docomomo reports and a range of LA historic studies, leading to a brainstorming on how ISC20C might develop an international 20th century thematic framework. Of course, it will have national, state and local applications too. Dr Susan Marsden, who is the co-author of the South Australian studies, will be providing a keynote paper in Los Angeles and Helen Lardner has already provided input on the work of TICCIH in this area. The presidents of the UIA (International Union of Architects) and Docomomo will be attending.
Whilst I am aware of a range of related projects and research in Australia, I would be pleased to receive your inputs/views, information about current work or research in this specific area, and invite you to indicate if you are interested in providing input/comment on the historic themes project via participation in a small email group circulation (unmoderated) on this topic over the next few weeks, and perhaps in the longer term.

14. mAAN Seoul 2011 Conference
8th International mAAN Seoul Conference
Our Living Heritage: Industrial Buildings and Sites of Asia
25-27 August 2011
Seoul, Korea
Deadline for submission of abstracts – 30 March 2011
The 2011 Modern Asian Architecture Network (mAAN) conference, to be held in Seoul, aims to shed light on the various conditions which industrial heritage sites now face. Along with architecture of power, religious buildings, and residential architecture, industrial buildings constitute an important part of our architectural past, but neither their value as a cultural heritage, nor their appropriate position in the historiography of architecture, have been fully illuminated. Especially in Asia, where industrial sites were long neglected since the changes in industrial structure, it is only recent that their economic and cultural significance is recognized. With industrial heritage as the main subject, the 2011 mAAN Seoul Conference will focus on the distinct contexts and conditions of Asian countries’ various industrial sites.
For further information, visit the conference website.
