Expressions of interest are invited from Australia ICOMOS Members to become the ‘Functions and Protocol Focal Point’ for the ICOMOS General Assembly and Scientific Symposium that will be hosted in Sydney in October 2020 (GA2020).

This is a voluntary position, which will involve a range of tasks at irregular times, from now until the end of 2020. Successful applicants are expected to attend and register for GA2020, and cover related personal travel and accommodation costs.

GA2020 will bring together leading cultural heritage professionals from around the world in an engaging program of site visits, functions, workshops and a four-day Scientific Symposium on the theme of ‘Shared Cultures – Shared Heritage – Shared Responsibility’. The GA2020 program includes formal functions such as the Opening Ceremony and Lord Mayoral reception for the ICOMOS Advisory Committee, plus social events such as a Gala Dinner and Luna Park party.

Hosting the GA2020 in Australia is only possible through significant support from the Commonwealth and NSW Governments, the City of Sydney and a committed network of government strategic partners and corporate patrons. These agencies and their key personnel, as well as ICOMOS dignitaries and guests, will be provided with opportunities to be welcomed, to speak and to have their contributions recognised.

The GA2020 team is seeking support from a highly-motivated Australia ICOMOS Member, with flair and skills in event management and knowledge of government protocols and processes, who can contribute to GA2020 as the Focal Point between ICOMOS Members, the GA2020 conference organisers, and our government and corporate supporters.

The GA2020 Functions and Protocol Focal Point will:

  • report to the GA2020 Convenor;
  • become a Member of the GA2020 Executive Committee;
  • collaborate with Arinex Pty Ltd, the GA2020 Professional Conference Organiser;
  • assist in delivering a program of formal functions and social events during the GA2020 program from 1 to 10 October 2020;
  • participate in further development of program content, including selection of performers;
  • consult with Government strategic partners and corporate patrons to ensure that their entitlements are delivered and their expectations are managed;
  • contribute to the preparation of event programs, run sheets, and audio visual support;
  • undertake other related tasks, as necessary.

2. [NEW ITEM] New Practice Note – Heritage and Sustainability 1: Built Heritage

The Australia ICOMOS National Scientific Committee on Energy and Sustainability (NSCES) would like to introduce their Practice Note on the Heritage and Sustainability of Built Heritage. The NSCES has been working on this practice note for some years now and it is intended to be the first in a series.

This Practice Note relates to the conservation of existing buildings and improvements to their environmental performance. The Heritage and Sustainability Practice Note series is expected to include: 1 – Built Heritage (this Practice Note); Heritage and Sustainability Practice Note 2: Cultural Landscape; Heritage and Sustainability Practice Note 3: Intangible Heritage; Heritage and Sustainability Practice Note 4: Climate Change.

This Practice Note deals with reducing carbon emissions and utilising increasingly scarce resources in a responsible way. Conservation of existing cultural and natural heritage reduces environmental impacts by:

  • Minimising construction waste by reducing the demolition cycle, ensuring buildings are adapted and retained until the end of their useful life;
  • Reducing carbon emissions by minimising the energy needed to demolish and reconstruct;
  • Retaining the embodied energy of existing structures and landscapes, recognising the environmental cost already paid;
  • Continuing the life of building materials that can no longer be sustainably sourced;
  • Continuing to utilise buildings designed to operate using passive environmental control;
  • Contributing towards maintaining a community’s sense of place in a rapidly changing world; and
  • Continuing traditional skills and practices, many of which have low environmental impacts.

Heritage conservation practice and sustainable development can have very similar objectives and the pursuit of one goal should not be at the expense of the other. Conserving and adapting heritage places can contribute to energy conservation and also reduces carbon emissions by minimising demolition and construction waste and the need for production and transportation of new materials.

We urge ICOMOS members to start integrating the concepts of sustainability into their conservation planning work and hope to run a seminar series early next year to further explain the issues.

The Practice Note can be downloaded from here.

4. [NEW ITEM] Membership of the Australia ICOMOS Pacific Heritage Reference Group – call for EOI: deadline COB Friday 27 September 2019

The current membership of the Australia ICOMOS Pacific Heritage Reference Group (PHRG) has been in place for more than 3 years and it is time to refresh the membership.

The members of the PHRG each have high-level qualifications and/or experience in the cultural heritage of the Pacific region. The purpose of the group is to provide advice as needed to the Australia ICOMOS President and Executive Committee on any issues that arise. Issues may relate to specific sites as in the case of World Heritage Monitoring Missions, capacity building in relation to cultural heritage conservation in the region, or ‘framework’ issues as in the case of preparing submissions on legislation reform. This reference group does not hold regular meetings but is called into action as issues arise.

More information can be found at the Pacific Heritage Reference Group webpage. Please note that all individuals who express an interest in any Australia ICOMOS Working or Reference Group agree to be bound by the documents that can be found here.

Members of Australia ICOMOS are invited to express an interest in becoming a member of this Reference Group by sending a completed PHRG_EOI_August 2019_FINAL form to the Australia ICOMOS Secretariat by email by COB 27 September 2019.

Young and Emerging Professionals with knowledge about Pacific issues, especially those who attended the 2018 CULTURE Conference in Fiji, and members from diverse range of backgrounds are encouraged to express an interest in contributing to the group in accordance with Australia ICOMOS policies.

For further information please contact Kerime Danis (PHRG Acting Convenor) by email or by phone 0414 421 035.

5. [NEW ITEM] Membership of the Australia ICOMOS Climate Change and Cultural Heritage Working Group – call for EOI: deadline COB Friday 27 September

The current membership of the Australia ICOMOS Climate Change and Cultural Heritage Working Group (CC&CHWG) has been in place for some time and it is now due for a refresh. As Australia ICOMOS foresaw in 2007 when it held a major public forum on Climate Change and Cultural Heritage, as a side event of the eXtreme heritage Conference in Cairns, climate change and the impacts on the world’s tangible and intangible cultural heritage has emerged as a serious challenge facing the long-term conservation of our heritage. The international body of ICOMOS has responded to this with the formation of a Climate Change Working Group (currently led by Andrew Potts of US/ICOMOS). Australia ICOMOS would like to refresh our national CC&CHWG with a focus on climate change, its impact and mitigation, in relation to cultural heritage in Australia and within our Asia Pacific region. More information can be found at the Climate Change and Cultural Heritage Working Group webpage. 

One of the first tasks of the newly refreshed CC&CHWG will be the development of a new Terms of Reference (currently in draft format) that reflect this focus and which also look at the way in which this working group can effectively liaise with and input into the work of the international working group. It is expected that in this way the working group members can bring the relevant work of Australia ICOMOS members to national and international attention and work to disseminate emerging knowledge, studies and practices in this field to our members.

This is a Working Group and requires active participation and a desire and commitment to develop and promote the relevant skills, research and projects of our members to support sustainable cultural heritage practice in the face of the risks and challenges arising from climate change. For this reason, although prior experience in climate change research and/or projects is highly desirable, it in not an essential requirement for membership of this group. Young & Emerging Professionals who are willing to play an active role in advancing the work of the Working Group are encouraged to express an interest. 

Please note that all individuals who express an interest in any Australia ICOMOS Working or Reference Group agree to be bound by the documents that can be found here.

Members of Australia ICOMOS are invited to express an interest in becoming members of the Climate Change and Cultural Heritage Working Group (CC&CHWG) by sending the completed CC&CHWG_EOI_August 2019_FINAL form to the Australia ICOMOS Secretariat by email by COB 27 September 2019.

For further information please contact Flavia Kiperman (Australia ICOMOS Executive Committee Member) by email or by phone: (+61) 0401 003 800.

10. [NEW ITEM] 7th International Architectural Finishes Research Conference, 14-16 October 2020, Israel – call for papers deadline: 1 October 2019

7th International Architectural Finishes Research Conference
Hosted By the David Azrieli School of Architecture
The David and Yolanda Katz Faculty of the Arts
Tel Aviv University, Israel
14-16 October 2020

Papers are invited for the 7th International Architectural Finishes Research Conference, to be held in Israel on 14-16 October 2020. The conference is held once every three years and attracts the field’s leading researchers and professionals.

Architectural finishes and color in the built environment give a place its vernacular uniqueness. Finishes connect the material/substance of a place and the life pulsing within it. Throughout history it has served as a tool for establishing local identity.

Architectural Finishes Research goes far beyond uncovering the color of paint layers, to providing historical information on daily and cultural life.

Previous conferences have defined research into these finishes as Architectural Paint Research (APR). We believe it is time to expand the definition of our research to include all architectural finishes. For this conference we will be addressing it as Architectural Finishes Research (AFR).

For more information, visit the call for papers webpage.

Submissions are due by 1 October 2019.

Join us at 5.30pm on Friday 30 August for a wine and cheese ‘Q & A’ style event to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Australia ICOMOS Burra Charter and to debate the future management of Burra’s heritage appeal and its future direction as a National Heritage Place. All are welcome to join the debate!

A selection of UniSA’s Master of Architecture student projects focusing on a hypothetical ‘interpretation and innovation centre’ in Hampton Village will also be on display.

The Burra Charter @ 40 event will provide an opportunity to consider a range of issues including:

  • The origins of the Burra Charter, its purpose and impact in Australia and beyond
  • What a ‘Burra Charter’ approach means in Burra for heritage owners today; its role in repair, adaptive reuse and tourism opportunities; and its ability to respond to emerging challenges in heritage practice

The format of the evening will be based on the ABC’s ‘Q&A’ show. Keith Conlon, Chair of the South Australian Heritage Council, will moderate the panel discussion and the audience will be invited to pose questions to the panel before the event and also on the night.

VICOMITES short talk series, Friday 11 October, Melbourne – NOTE DATE & TIME CHANGE

VICOMITES short talk series – Friday 6 September 2019
Budj Bim, the World Heritage-listed cultural landscape

Australia ICOMOS members, and prospective members, are invited to a presentation by Damein Bell, a Gunditjmara man and CEO of Gunditj Mirring Traditional Owners Aboriginal Corporation. Damein will reflect on the journey that led to the inscription of the Budj Bim Cultural Landscape on the World Heritage List (6 July 2019).

The cultural landscape consists of three serial components, and constitutes one of the world’s most extensive and oldest aquaculture systems. The Budj Bim lava flows provide the basis for the complex system of channels, weirs and dams developed by the Gunditjmara in order to trap, store and harvest kooyang (short-finned eel – Anguilla australis). The system provided an economic and social base for Gunditjmara society for six millennia.

Refreshments will be provided.

Location: The Kathleen Syme Library and Community Centre, 251 Faraday Street, Carlton

Australia ICOMOS / DOCOMOMO Sydney Talk Series, 11 September

“Along Bauhaus Lines” Architecture and Design by European Emigres in Aotearoa
presented by Linda Tyler

European emigré architects were key vectors for the introduction of Bauhaus ideas to post-war New Zealand. Their Central European training was often at odds with the modernism that was developing there. In the organisations and institutions where they were influential, the Bauhaus was held up as an exemplar to follow.

For example, in an article entitled “What was the Bauhaus?” published in 1949 in the Architecture Centre’s publication Design Review, the importance of the legacy of the Bauhaus for New Zealanders was explained. This talk will outline some of the key ways in which the Bauhaus left an inflection in New Zealand, not only in the built environment but also in design education.

Linda Tyler

Associate Professor Linda Tyler teaches in the disciplinary areas of both art history and museums and cultural heritage at the University of Auckland. Her architectural history thesis completed at the University of Canterbury on the New Zealand architecture of Ernst Anton Plischke has been the basis of two exhibitions and several publications in Wellington and Vienna. She has also published articles on Vladimir Čačala and has contributed the chapter on Bauhaus influences in New Zealand to the Miegunyah Press book, Bauhaus Diaspora and Beyond: Transforming Education through Art, Design and Architecture, edited by Philip Goad, Ann Stephen, Andrew McNamara, Harriet Edquist, Isabel Wünsche and published in August 2019.

Time & Date: Wednesday 11 September 2019, 5.30pm for 6pm start

Cost: Students $10, Members $15, Non-members $20 – book via eventbrite

Decolonising Cultural Heritage and Museum Studies conference, 13-14 November 2019, Deakin Uni Burwood – call for papers: deadline 31 August

It is now 40 years since Deakin University began its Museum Studies program in 1979. In celebrating this milestone, we are organising a conference that responds to the enormous changes over that time, both in the fields of museum practice and the wider field of cultural heritage. Given our location in Australia, a settler society, our focus takes its bearing from the increasing pressure on museums, archives and heritage places to ‘decolonize’ their practices and relations with Indigenous and First Nations People. The conference thus seeks to broaden and deepen the cross-disciplinary and cross-sector conversation about new practices, interpretations and lives for collected materials across the GLAM sector, as well as heritage places shaped by colonial contexts.
