1. ICOMOS Sessions 2014, Tuesday 18 February, Sydney

The ICOMOS Sessions is an initiation event for early career heritage practitioners and Young Professional members of ICOMOS.

Download the ICOMOS SESSIONS 18 FEB 2014 flier.

The aim of this event is to engage more actively with the Young Professional members and increase the relationship/interaction among the membership as well as heritage professionals who are interested in joining ICOMOS.

The idea of the event is to bring together Young Professional members and experienced Australia ICOMOS members to exchange knowledge and to help in developing their understanding the principles and policies of Australia ICOMOS, in particular in application of best-heritage practice as well as adding to their competence in heritage management.

This is the second event following from our first successful event, and Mary Knaggs and I wish to see you there. Please bring your friends who are interested in joining ICOMOS.

Should you have any questions on the event please do not hesitate to email me or email Mary.

Best regards,
Kerime Danis
Australia ICOMOS Secretary

2. Australia ICOMOS / Docomomo Sydney Talk Series, 19 February

Le Corbusier serial site nomination for World Heritage Listing
Presented by Professor Yoshiyuki Yamana, Tokyo University of Science

Le Corbusier talk

The Architectural and Urban Works of Le Corbusier were proposed for World Heritage listing in 2008, and widely supported by architects and designers, but did the selected 22 properties nominated have what it takes to be World Heritage listed as a serial site?

The World Heritage Committee initially referred the nomination back for improved management and further assessment of its conceptual foundation. In 2011 a revised nomination was submitted of 19 properties, as the Architectural Work of Le Corbusier. The revised nomination was deferred by the Committee, and although commending the improvement of most management issues, the nominators were requested to better define the Outstanding Universal Value of the selected group as a serial nomination. The state party nominators have since been working on a second revised nomination, this time with just 16 sites in 6 countries.

Professor Yoshiyuki Yamana of the Tokyo University of Science has been an active participant in the development of all the Le Corbusier nominations, which includes the National Museum of Western Art in Tokyo. He is a long term member of Docomomo Japan and a Vice President of the ICOMOS ISC Twentieth Century Heritage. Author of many publications and exhibitions, he is an academic, an activist, and a passionate supporter of the conservation of modern architecture. He is visiting Sydney for just a few days.

The ICOMOS ISC20C has held a series of seminars debating the concept for modern heritage places in recent years, as input to the ICOMOS position on the Le Corbusier dossier, and the approaching Frank Lloyd Wright nomination. Professor Yamana will be introduced by Sheridan Burke, President of ICOMOS ISC 20C.

Time & Date: Wednesday 19 February 2014, 5.30 for 6.00pm start
Cost: Members $7, non-members $12 payable at the door. NUMBERS LIMITED
Venue: GML Heritage, 78 George Street, Redfern
RSVP: email Jane Vernon or call (02) 9319 4811. Please note RSVP is essential.

8. International Conference on Energy Efficiency in Historic Buildings, Dublin, May 2014

“Living with the Past
International Conference on Energy Efficiency in Historic Buildings
8-9 May 2014
Dublin Castle

“Energy & Sustainability – Strive for sensible & Intelligent Energy Conservation”

Most Governments in the developed World signed up to the Kyoto Protocol and agreed to reduce their Energy Consumption and CO² emissions by 20% by 2020 based on 1990 levels. The majority of Governments have only recently commenced any meaningful initiatives to achieve these goals.

More recently Governments have identified that by introducing a blanket drive to the “Retro Fit of all of Europe’s existing Housing Stock could produce a huge proportion of these targets whilst stimulating employment in the ever decreasing Construction Market.

In 2010 at the ICOMOS International meetings in Dublin, Ireland it was accepted there will be a major international challenge and risk to the heritage value in achieving Energy Efficiency in Heritage and Traditional Buildings – based on this concern ICOMOS formed a working group led by ICOMOS Ireland and involving ICOMOS France and ICOMOS Belgium to research this sector and at the Advisory Council Meeting of 2012 in Beijing, China an International Scientific Committee was formed to spearhead the protection of our built heritage and to be proactive in producing international guidelines for intelligent and sensitive energy conservation in heritage and traditional buildings whilst promoting the importance of protecting the heritage value of our pre 1945 building stock.

This work is well advanced and the importance of our work is gaining international recognition – much research is now collated, national and international partners identified and guidelines advanced through our involvement with the CEN TC/346 WG 8 (Central European Standards Committee).

We believe it is now time to widen the networking and to share the available information and case studies to date in this sector by holding an International Scientific Symposium in May 2014 in Dublin Castle, Dublin Ireland

There will be four main stands to the 2 Day Symposium:

  • Best International Research to-date
  • Case Studies across Europe & the USA
  • Advising and assisting our Governments on policies and strategies
  • Being positive about the challenges ahead

Within each strand there will be a number of important and recognised international speakers presenting work from all corners of Europe, we also hope to attract one or two speakers from China / Australia and the USA.

This is an opportunity to put Ireland on the international map for state of the art lead research in developing policies, theories and sustainable products in the development of strategies and systems for making our existing, heritage and traditional buildings more energy efficient whilst enhancing and securing its heritage values and perhaps more importantly contributing in a positive way to many governments achieving their international commitments in reducing energy demand and CO² emissions across this very important sector.

9. UNITAR Management & Conservation of World Heritage Sites 2014 workshop – call for registrations

The deadline for Applications is: Monday 24 February 2014

The United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) Hiroshima Office is calling for registrations for the 2014 Workshop, which will examine “World Heritage Nominations: Justification For The Inscription of Cultural Landscapes”.

SERIES OUTLINE

The UNITAR Series on the Management and Conservation of World Heritage Sites, launched in 2003, has thus far comprised nine annual Workshops held in Hiroshima and one in-country Workshop in India. With over 300 Alumni to date the Workshops offer a set of innovative approaches to heritage conservation, including:

  • A values-based management approach examining the significance of the properties to be conserved
  • The fusion of cultural and natural heritage management
  • The recognition of both the tangible and intangible aspects of heritage values
  • Focused analysis of specific areas of the nomination process

SERIES LINKS

2014 WORKSHOP: FOCUS

World Heritage Nominations: Justification For The Inscription Of Cultural Landscapes

Nominations of cultural landscapes – being the combined works of people and nature – often pose particular challenges as their potential outstanding universal value arises not from their cultural or natural qualities assessed independently but from the inter-relationship between culture and nature. The workshop will therefore examine how to present a clear argument for the justification for inscription of cultural landscapes on the World Heritage List. While there will be an emphasis on cultural landscapes, the overall scope of the workshop also applies to other types of natural and cultural sites.

2014 WORKSHOP: DATES AND LOCATION

  • The dates for the 2014 Workshop are: Monday 14 – Friday 18 April
  • The Workshop will be held in: Hiroshima, Japan

10. Port Arthur Talks, Thursday 13 February 2014

Roses from the heart: a tribute to convict women
presented by Dr Christina Henri

Tasmanian artist Christina Henri is using art as a meaningful tool to tell the stories of our past and bring focus to heritage sites, especially the Cascades Female Factory Historic Site. This presentation tells us the how, why and where about Roses from the Heart – the first memorial to ALL women sentenced to transportation as convicts to Australia 1788-1853.

Beginning as a memorial art installation based on the colonial bonnet which pays tribute to the contribution paid to colonial society by convict women, it has grown to become a collection of over 23,000 bonnets made by descendants and interested individuals alike. Christina will share stories of her visits to Ireland with Roses from the Heart in 2010, 2012 and 2013.

Christina Henri completed her PhD in visual and performing arts through the University of Tasmania in 2011. She has been Honorary Artist-in-Residence at the Cascades Female Factory Historic Site since 2003, and has been involved in numerous art installations and exhibitions in recent years that involve acknowledgement of convict women. Last year she was inscribed on the Tasmanian Honour Roll of Women.

ALL WELCOME!

When: Thursday 13 February 2014 at 5.30pm

Where: Junior Medical Officer’s Conference Room

15. “Heritage & Healthy Societies?” conference, USA, 14-16 May 2014 – final call for abstracts

HERITAGE AND HEALTHY SOCIETIES?
Exploring the Links among Cultural Heritage, Environment, and Resilience
UMass Amherst Campus, Amherst, MA USA
14-16 May 2014

The University of Massachusetts Amherst Center for Heritage & Society is pleased to host its Fourth Annual International Heritage Conference.

Co-organized by: the Center for Heritage & Society (UMass Amherst) and the Centre for Heritage at Kent (University of Kent)

Plenary Speakers

  • Michael Herzfeld, Professor of Anthropology, Harvard University
  • Mindy Fullilove, Professor of Clinical Psychiatry and Public Health, Columbia University
  • Rodney Harrison, Reader in Archaeology, Heritage and Museum Institute of Archaeology, University College London

The Challenge

Whether on an on an individual or a societal scale, heritage and well-being are often seen as disparate concerns. When heritage is viewed as related to community well-being, its value is often reduced to economic development and tourism, rather than something that might be integral to wellness on a larger scale. But what if the collective remaking of the past in the present plays a critical role in imagining a more sustainable and healthy future?

The goal of this conference is to explore the application of the past to contemporary and future social challenges, specifically sustainability and wellbeing. Given the current focus on climate change, rising sea levels, and the displacement of peoples, the wellness of societies is a critical issue. But until now, heritage has had little to say about the subject. The conference will explore the relationship between heritage and three interrelated aspects of sustainability and wellbeing:

  • Heritage and Environment – How can heritage be brought to bear on the problems of environmental sustainability, including changing ecosystems, food security, and dwindling energy resources?
  • Heritage and Resilience – How does the past affect issues of social sustainability, including community adaptability, cohesion and identity?
  • Heritage and Wellness – How do place, continuity and memory relate to issues of human wellbeing, and physical and mental health?

Specific topics under these themes may include

  • Heritage and climate change
  • Historic urban landscapes and sustainability
  • Social dislocation, trauma, and wellbeing
  • Slow food and local foodways
  • Adaptive reuse and green building
  • Traditional forms of healing
  • Heritage and “happiness”
  • Sustainable development
  • Place attachment and community well-being
  • Eco-museums and community

Submission of Abstracts

Abstracts for organized sessions, research papers, and poster presentations will be accepted until 1 February 2014. We strongly encourage the submission of abstracts as part of organized sessions, which will be considered for invited session status. Organized sessions should include both panel and individual paper abstracts (a maximum of 300 words in English with a maximum of one illustration or screenshot).

Notification of acceptance will be made by 15 February 2014, and conference registration must be made by 1 March 2014.

Additional information can be found at the conference website.

16. “Efficiency and excellence in the public memory sector” symposium, Croatia, September 2014 – call for papers

The Best in Heritage is a two-day conference about professional excellence in public performances of heritage institutions. It is preceded by eCult Dialogue Day, a fascinating half day event on use of ICT as a cohesion factor for the entire public memory sector. This year, we add to this conference of excellence a one day symposium to be held on Sunday 28 September on the theme of “Efficiency and excellence in the public memory sector”. The book volume of presented contributions will be pre-published for the conference, distributed to the participants and made available on-line.

Our claim is that all heritage organisations and institutions (museums, conservation, libraries, archives, hybrid and cyber institutions, heritage actions and networks) continue to demonstrate a constant convergence of theories and practices and the need for a common science. This science in the making is another cohesion factor for the many diverse heritage occupations which each have their own theories (e.g. Museology, Archivistics, Librarianship, Computer science etc.).

Besides sharing ICT and theory, the heritage sector also shares a focus on visitors and users and the same mission in society: we all want to turn the heritage from the past into a noble and scientifically based wisdom that can then be used for the harmonious development of our society. Those shared values, together with the analysis of good daily practice, from eco-museums to citizen heritage action, should be the leitmotiv of the papers and presentations we expect to receive.

This Call for papers is in fact a plea for like-minded sympathizers and allies to join us in the project of a future grand profession, uniting all our heritage occupations in a concerted effort to turn our collective public memories into a Useful Heritage.

Authors are expected to present their contribution in person on 28th, in form of PowerPoint presentation.

Contributions should be received latest by 15 April 2014.

For more information please visit the symposium website.
