1. Melbourne’s ‘Mini Australia ICOMOS Conference’, October 2014 – advanced notice

On 17-18 October, Australia ICOMOS is holding two all-day symposia back-to-back, along with the Australia ICOMOS Annual General Meeting.

On Friday 17 October, the Activism symposium asks whether we need to return to an age of activism to retain and build on what achieved in cultural heritage conservation since the 1970s. Featuring presentations from successful activists in social media, local government, planning community action, the natural environment and the arts it will offer us a chance to reflect and look forward. The AGM will be held after the Activism symposium.

Our Saturday 18 October symposium will focus on Intangible Cultural Heritage, and will include the launch of the Australia ICOMOS National Scientific Committee on Intangible Cultural Heritage.

More information on each event is provided below.

Each event is expected to be around $60 for members to cover catering and venue with a discount for those signing up for both events. Bookings will open later in August.

 

The Return to a New Age of Activism for Cultural Heritage?

  • Friday 17 October, 9.00am-4.00pm (followed by the Australia ICOMOS AGM at 4.30pm)
  • Deakin University City Campus
    550 Bourke Street, Melbourne

Serious threats seem to be developing across Australia to the framework for the conservation of cultural heritage that has been so successfully built up over the last four decades. Long established legal and administrative frameworks have been under threat while funding for the active conservation of cultural heritage is being greatly diminished.

Paradoxically these threats seem to be developing at a time when community appreciation and support for heritage buildings and landscapes has never been greater. Poling and surveys regularly indicate that hearts and minds have been truly won over. But it seems that governments and politicians need to be reminded of that support, as the attention they give to heritage issues appears to be seriously waning.

Does this mean a need for a return to the activism of the 70s and early 80s? Is this political indifference a result of the complacency of organisations supporting the conservation of cultural heritage places like the National Trust and Australia ICOMOS? Is this complacency a result of our very success demonstrated by these polls and surveys?

Other groups supporting environmental conservation, fair-minded town planning, and a more enlightened approach to transport, have a better record of continuous campaigning but yet are being equally thwarted, while those in the arts sense the need for a new approach in the face of more and more funding cuts.

This symposium seeks to learn from prominent activists operating outside the area of cultural heritage. We plan to have 6 key speakers in three sessions though the day with plenty of time for discussion at each session. A final fourth session will take the form of a panel discussion where the relevance of this wider experience for cultural heritage will be examined.

Speakers already confirmed are:

  • Michael Poland: Director Climate Campaigns, Get Up!
  • Jackie Fristackie: Mayor, Yarra City Council
  • Corinne Fisher: Convener, Better Planning Network (NSW)
  • Professor Peter Tregear: Head, School of Music ANU

 

Grasping the intangible at heritage places

  • Saturday 18th October, 9.00am-5.30pm
  • University College
    40 College Crescent, Parkville VIC 3052

This symposium will examine ideas about intangible cultural heritage, looking at a series of case studies to help us understand the complexity and diversity of these perspectives on heritage, and linking theory and practice.

A call for case study presentations will be in the next Australia ICOMOS newsletter.

The symposium will conclude with the launch of the Australia ICOMOS National Scientific Committee on Intangible Cultural Heritage along with some delightful expressions of some cultural intangibles!

One of the aims of the symposium is to build a network of people in heritage and related disciplines who have an interest and experience in intangible cultural heritage, and to invite membership to the Intangible Heritage National Scientific Committee (NSC).

2. AICOMOS Symposium ‘Grasping the intangible at heritage places’ – call for papers

Australia ICOMOS Symposium ‘Grasping the intangible at heritage places’ + Launch of NSC-Intangible Cultural Heritage
Saturday 18 October, 2014 University College, Melbourne

A key aim of this one-day symposium is to explore the concept of intangible cultural heritage in relation to places and start building case study examples for a tool box of good practice.

Papers are to be 10 or 15 minutes, with 5 minutes for questions and discussion.

Case studies which demonstrate an aspect of intangible heritage are invited, including:

  • identifying and recording intangible heritage
  • retaining and sustaining heritage values
  • interpretation
  • linking theory and practice
  • challenges and opportunities in applying the Burra Charter

A range of heritage places and experiences is sought.

Abstracts of around 100-200 words should be emailed to Meredith Walker by 6 September 2014.

7. The Wallpapered Manse shortlisted in 2014 NSW Premier’s History Awards

The Wallpapered Manse has been shortlisted (one of three) in the 2014 NSW Premier’s History Awards (community + regional history). Congratulations to Australia ICOMOS member Peter Freeman.

The Wallpapered Manse: The Rescue of an Endangered House, Peter Freeman

Beautifully presented and written, this is a very compelling and original story of the conservation of a heritage site set in the broader context of its local history. At the core, Peter Freeman tells the story of a community through the layers of a wallpapered house, which is both innovative and engaging. Freeman brings the story of the manse and the local district to life through the interweaving of place and community. The book is unusual in the sense that is both a history and a heritage conservation study in one. Carefully researched, the history of the house is gradually revealed with almost forensic fervour, yet does not daunt the reader with unnecessary and boring detail. This book is an interesting example of what can happen when conservation architecture and history is united – a combination that is all too uncommon.

8. Conservation Management Planning workshop, Canberra, 27 September

Conservation Management Planning:
the What, Why and How for Historic Gardens, Landscapes and Buildings

A workshop organised by the Australian Garden History Society, ACT Monaro Riverina Branch

Date & Time: 8.45am to 2pm, Saturday 27 September 2014 – this date is during Floriade so it may suit people from outside the region to combine the workshop with a visit to Canberra.

Venue: St John’s Anglican Church precinct, 45 Constitution Avenue, Reid

The term Conservation Management Plan (CMP) is frequently used in the “heritage business” but is foreign to most of us. Just what are CMPs? How do they work? Why do we need to know about them?

The ACT Monaro Riverina Branch of the AGHS has put together a workshop to help answer some of these questions. Appropriately, the workshop will be at St John’s Reid, one of Canberra’s most historic sites.

For further information, including the program and registration form, download the Conservation Management Planning registration brochure.

9. “Ruins of the Heritagization” congress: Rio de Janeiro/Paris Nov 2014/March 2015 – call for papers

“Ruins of the Heritagization”
Rio de Janeiro, November 2014 / Paris, March 2015

Over the last two or three decades the growth of cultural heritage movements concern objects increasingly diverse at multiple scales. Many artistic, economic, political and scientific efforts have been made to acquire some labels – including the world heritage – that not only affect the possibility of cross-cultural recognition, but also has real effects on the cultures themselves. The new regime of visibility on cultural heritage influences on identity construction, favors growth through tourism, significantly influences the price of land and also a profound change in the local population. Some collective practices then tend to disappear while others are established in a movement that creates conflict or, truly, re-signifies them.

The aim of ‘Ruins of the Heritagization’ is to institute an archeology of territories considered as being ‘heritage’ focusing the “ruins” produced by the process of labelling cities. This implies borrowing archeology its ability to interrogate the ruins, which can only be read or considered as such in the present – specific place where the recognition of the past is featured and, potentially, that of the future.

See the Ruins of the Heritagization – call for papers for further information. The deadline for proposals is 30 September 2014.

11. Raymond McGrath exhibition, opens 28 August, Sydney

Raymond McGrath: Modern Master
Architectural drawings, photographs and works on paper by Raymond McGrath (1903-77)

EXHIBITION DETAILS: Thursday 28 August  – Friday 24 October 2014

GALLERY HOURS: Tuesday – Friday 11.00am–5.00pm

Tin Sheds Gallery is proud to announce it will be showcasing a generous collection of works by the late Irish-Australian architect, Raymond McGrath. This exhibition is the first of its kind in Australia. The collection of works in Modern Master are on loan from the Irish Architectural Archive, where the works were first exhibited in a major retrospective held in 2013. In addition to IAA’s collection, Tin Sheds Gallery will be loaning McGrath works from Josef Lebovic Gallery, Sydney; a complimentary expansion to the breadth of work on display.

The exhibition highlights McGrath’s illustrious career, giving a visual narrative to several of his seminal architectural works. Modern Master is not only a great opportunity to pay homage to McGrath as an architect in his own right, but to also celebrate an architect whose first education in architecture started here, at the Faculty of Architecture, University of Sydney. McGrath graduated in 1926 with first-class honours, and the University Medal for the most distinguished student.

13. LUXLAB Advanced Digital Imaging Workshops, UNSW, September 2014

For the first time in Australia, this professionals workshop focuses on practical understandings of new imaging technology for preservation, conservation and, visionary uses in exhibition. LUXLAB Workshop #1 draws on the experience and technologies of Kyoto University’s Advanced Imaging Lab that has scanned of over 8000 seminal artworks and national treasures throughout the world.

LUXLAB is a new initiative of the National Institute for Experimental Arts at UNSW Art & Design, bringing these technologies to the Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums (GLAMs) sector regionally while joining a network of laboratories located in the United Kingdom, Europe, Egypt, China, Hong Kong, Malaysia and South Korea.

High-resolution optically resolved scanning is a process for scientific recording of cultural heritage, art and archival material which does not involve image interpolation. It is a vital for conservation and preservation, providing true-color, exceptional quality and very high resolution images. These images are the best possible resources for scientific analysis and colour science, but also provide cultural organisations with unparalleled opportunities for making their collections available for diverse public audiences. LUXLAB engages with the frontiers of imaging technologies, with 4K and 8K revolution in screen and tablets, in immersive environment design and web enabled streaming.

14. New signs and technology help visitors at Port Arthur – PAHSMA media release

Australia ICOMOS is committed to the dissemination of relevant cultural heritage information. In line with this commitment we are circulating the following media release from the Port Arthur Historic Site Management Authority (PAHSMA), dated 20 August 2014.

New signs and technology are helping visitors find their way and connect with history at the Port Arthur Historic Site.

The first new feature visitors will notice as they enter the Site from the Visitor Centre is the striking 46” digital display screen that has replaced a clock face with moveable hands that displayed the next tour departure time.

“In addition to counting down to the next tour, the new screen offers the all-important ‘you are here’ map, information on the weather, historical stories and details on any special events or activities that may be occurring at any given time or day,” said Dr Jody Steele, Port Arthur Historic Site Management Authority (PAHSMA) Manager of Heritage Programs.

“It gives visitors much deeper access to information. It also gets around the way that some mischievous visitors would move the hands on the old clock, causing confusion all around.”

The digital sign is just one part of an overhaul of the way-finding and interpretive signage across the Historic Site.

“Various types of signage had been installed at Port Arthur over recent decades, with at least five different interpretation signage styles, with many one-off signage elements scattered around the site at various locations giving a disjointed presentation of information,“ said Dr Steele.

Research also revealed that visitors were having difficulty finding their way around, particularly at some of the major pathway intersections.

“In designing the new signage, we have aimed to help visitors find their way while engaging them with historical and contextual information that add meaning to the Site as they move around it.”

Three levels of signage will, when completed, display precinct or locality signs that introduce the main features of the area and the relevant contextual themes, features and functions of buildings and other features and some of the characters of the site. Small, discreet and sometimes tucked away for the visitor to discover, these signs may be a quote picture or a phrase.

The changing profile of visitors is reflected in directional and basic information being presented in both English and Simplified Chinese. Future plans include provision of additional information in multiple languages via mobile technologies such as QR codes or near-field communication chips, which can be embedded on the signs and updated as technology advances without the need to replace the signage infrastructure.

The overall signage strategy incorporates coherent design across all three historic sites managed by PAHSMA, including the Port Arthur, Coal Mines and Cascades Female Factory Historic Sites.

The first stage of what has is a multi stage project was supported by the Commonwealth Government through a Tourism Quality Projects Grants (TQUAL) to the amount of $100,000, with funds matched by PAHSMA.
