1) Australia ICOMOS - Seeking:
Working Group or Subcommittee Members
Please note: Existing members of these working groups and sub-committees
need not re-apply but are requested to confirm their interest in remaining on
the relevant committee by emailing georgia.meros@deakin.edu.au.
Are you interested in joining an Australia ICOMOS Working
Group or Subcommittee?
Australia ICOMOS has a number of working groups and
subcommittees which focus on areas of interest to Australia ICOMOS. These committees
and subcommittees are currently under review as the issues that gave rise to
the need for some are no longer relevant and others are in need of renewed
energy and commitment. Some of these act as 'Reference Groups' - ie they are
made up of people with expertise in a particular area who can be called on to
assist and provide advice if a relevant issue arises in the works of the
Executive Committee.
If you have particular expertise in the following areas we
are interested in hearing from you:
§ Pacific
Heritage;
§
World Heritage Reference Group; and
§ Indigenous
Heritage Working Group
Some are standing committees that work with the Executive on
a more regular basis. These include:
§
the Advocacy Working Group; and
§ the
IBC Marketing Group
We are also considering establishing two new working parties
arising from resolutions of the 2007 Extreme Heritage Conference.
These working groups would meet regularly to try and progress key Australia
ICOMOS work in the following areas:
§ Climate
Change and Cultural Heritage and
§ Heritage
of Space Exploration.
If you are interested in getting involved in any of these
groups please send a brief Expression of Interest of no more than 500 words
including your name and contact details and an outline of your experience,
qualifications and interest in the topic.
Please clearly indicate at the top of your EOI the Working
Group you are interested in. A small selection committee led by Duncan
Marshall in the case of the Advocacy Working Group and Jane Harrington for the
World Heritage Reference Group will review the EOIs. The panel reviewing
the other groups is currently being determined. Once populated the Working
Groups and committees will be listed on the Australia ICOMOS website and the
membership will stand for a maximum of 3 years after which time they will again
be reviewed and if continued will be open to another call for Expressions of
Interest from members.
EOIs should be sent to georgia.meros@deakin.edu.au
by no later than 5pm 30 August.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2) URGENT - New members for
International Committee on Risk Preparedness (ICORP)
The mission of ICORP is to assist ICOMOS:
a.
in furthering the conservation, protection and enhancement of heritage
structures, sites or areas
b.
in achieving its statutory objectives
c.
in implementing the decisions of its General Assembly
by addressing issues associated with risks of natural or
human origins and their impacts on the conservation of heritage.
ICORP is seeking a National representative from Australia
ICOMOS to join ICORP. The representative will need relevant experience on
the theme of risk preparedness and, more broadly, the theme of disaster
prevention and reduction for heritage structures, sites or areas. ICORP
does not intend to limit their invitation to the designation of a single person
as their primary goal is to establish a network of contact-persons with whom
they can work towards the new constitution of ICORP and their work plan.
As such, Australia ICOMOS is seeking EOIs from ICOMOS members
to become:
§ An
Expert Member of ICORP (who would also act as Australia's voting representative
to ICORP); or
§ Other
professionals amongst AI members with such experience as would be valuable in
developing a directory of ICOMOS resources on the subject of risk preparedness
for heritage.
If you are interested in either of these positions, please email
your EOI (including letter of suitability outlining your specific experience in
this area and how you plan to contribute to the committee, plus CV) to georgia.meros@deakin.edu.au with
a copy to janea@ainsworthheriatge.com.au.
For further information on ISCs or ICORP, please email Jane Ainsworth at janea@ainsworthheriatge.com.au.
This matter is urgent and we require a response by Wednesday
26 August 2009.

3) Australia ICOMOS - Canberra
Talk Series
KASHGAR, THE SILK
ROAD AND THE TIBETAN PLATEAU IN NEPAL - EXOTIC HERITAGE VERSUS MODERN STANDARDS
AND POLITICS
Dr Michael Pearson
This talk is about the stress being felt on the edges of
China and in neighbouring countries to 'modernise' ancient towns. The
pressures are political and social, as medieval living and ethnic affiliations
become untenable in a globalised world to both the state and, in some ways, to
the locals. The examples used are the city of Kashgar, currently being
demolished by the Han Chinese, other towns on the Silk Road, and Tibetan towns
north of the Himalayas in northern Nepal. The talk is based on Michael's
travels in the region over the last four years.
Members and the public are welcome. Refreshments will
be available. This is part of a series of talks organised in Canberra by
Australia ICOMOS.
Time & Date: 5.00-6.30 pm, Thursday 27
August 2009 - the talk will actually start at 5.30.
Venue: Menzies Room, National Archives of
Australia, East Block, Queen Victoria Terrace, Parkes (enter from Kings Avenue
side).
RSVP: To Duncan Marshall at marsd@ozemail.com.au
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

6) Architecture Inside/Out
Symposium #02 - Call for papers
Columbia University
GSAPP Architecture History and Theory
Architecture Inside/Out Symposium #02
Architecture and the State, 1940s to 1970s
2-3 April 2010
The worldwide formation and reconfiguration of states in the
1940s presented architectural culture with new ideological scenarios and an
increased opportunity for building and planning. From reconstruction of old
states to the construction of new ones, from definitions of the limits of the
sovereignty of the state to the development of international relationships and
transnational organizations, models varied from the Welfare State and Social
Democracy Planning to dictatorial and autarchic regimes. Arguably, in the
following decades the state operated, overtly or not, as a dominant framework
of social, political and cultural life at a global scale. Issues pertaining to
the building of the state were also confronted through architectural
strategies, such as migration of populations; ethnic diversity; urban and rural
territorial management; centralization and de-centralization. In all, state
initiatives like planning urban expansion or new towns, the provision of public
housing and services (such as health and education), buildings for new
institutions, new legislative measures in planning and building, and the
international projection of a state's image through cultural objects,
reconfigured the public role of the architect and called for his or her
intervention.
The intention of the symposium is to explore the dynamics
between architecture, urbanism and the state during the 1940s to1970s: How did
architects assess and take a position - of collaboration, critical negotiation,
or resistance - vis-a-vis the apparatus of the state? What were the instruments
devised, both at conceptual and practical levels, to support these positions?
How did this new socio-political frame become the ground for revising the
legacy of early modern architecture? In what ways were these revisions
circulated, incorporated, and translated internationally? And finally, how did
the architectural or urban object embody these dynamics? We call for research
that helps to construct the variegated panorama of institutional initiatives,
social services, public policies and architectural responses in a broad
geopolitical frame that may include the post-World War II reconfiguration of
states, the new postcolonial nations, different welfare models, the soviet
bloc, and the works and demise of dictatorial regimes. Ultimately, our hope is
to open the territory in between the instrumentality of architecture (by the
state) and the political agency of architecture for historical exploration.
Deadlines
20 minutes paper abstracts (max. 500 words): 1 October 2009
Proposals should be sent via email in WORD or PDF format to: architectureandstate2010@gmail.com
Acceptance notifications: 20 November 2009
Paper deadline: 1 February 2010
Architecture and the State, 1940s to 1970s is part of Architecture
Inside/Out, a forum for academic discussion organized by the doctoral
students in architectural history and theory at the Graduate School of
Architecture, Planning and Preservation (GSAPP) at Columbia University. Limited
financial assistance for speakers will be available upon application. The
conference is supported by the GSAPP and the Graham Foundation for Advanced
Studies in the Fine Arts.

12) PAHSMA - New publication on
Convict life
The Port Arthur Historic Site Management Authority has just
published a rare, near-to first-hand account of a Convict life.
William Thompson was a twenty-one year old shoemaker when he
was sentenced in 1841 to Life for breaking into commercial premises and
stealing. He spent almost eleven years, between 1841 and 1852, in the convict
system in Van Diemen's Land. In July 1900 noted Tasmanian photographer John
Watt Beattie wrote down 80 year old Thompson's reminiscences and took a number
of photographs of him back at the scenes of his incarceration.
This narrative covers his life story from the time that he
arrived in Van Diemen's Land in 1841 to his departure from the convict system
almost 12 years later. It has been supplemented by a small amount of
information on his subsequent life from the Register of Births, Deaths and
Marriages, and from some family history.
Thompson's story is unusual in the Tasmanian convict record.
This is because in its current form it is simply the raw material from which
such fables are created, and this makes it uniquely important and interesting.
It is also significant because it paints for us a picture of life 'behind the
scenes' in the convict period. Thompson takes us into his world of lived
experience, where life is much more complex and colourful. It is a welcome
antidote to the official record, or the many myths that have grown up around
convict experience.
The manuscript is held in the Heritage Collections at the
State Library of Tasmania, and this publication has been prepared for
publication through a partnership between the Port Arthur Historic Site
Management Authority and the Library.
William Thompson spent some considerable time at the Coal
Mines and at Port Arthur, and this volume is the second in Port Arthur's
Occasional Papers series, which began with a well-received volume on convict
shipbuilding and the Port Arthur Dockyard. This series is part of Port Arthur's
commitment to sharing the results of our research with the wider community, and
should be of interest to both an academic and general readership.
The book is available from the Port Arthur Historic Site
Management Authority. Retail sales are available from their Gift Shop - phone
+61 (0)3 6251 2333.
Inquiries for wholesale sales may be directed to their
Resource Centre - Susan Hood +61 (0)3 6251 2324 or susan.hood@portarthur.org.au.

Public Space in Rural Australia: A creative approach to place-making
'Rethinking Public Space in Rural Australia: A creative

According to the Victorian Department of Sustainability,
Victorian Mallee communities are on the cusp of becoming 'Australia's first
climate change refugees'. The implications of such a displacement, in the
context of postcolonial history especially, are complex. One commonly
articulated concern is the fragmentation of community, and the resulting loss
of sustaining conditions, including public space, that the environmental and
social transformation of these places is predicted to occasion. This paper will
consider the threat of climate change to rural places in light of an expanded
understanding of sustainability, one in which the very nature of place, and the
register of what constitutes community, is rethought. It will outline a
creative approach to place-making (as both a theory and a practice) in which poetic
connections, as much as material conditions, matter to sustainable futures.
