6. [NEW ITEM] WA Future Forum 2020 wrap up

The Future Forum 2020: Visions for the future of Aboriginal Heritage in Western Australia, co- organised by the Australian Association of Consulting Archaeologists (AACAI), the Anthropological Society of Western Australia (ASWA), and Australian ICOMOS (International Council on Monuments and Sites), was held at the Esplanade Hotel Fremantle on Friday 16 October 2020.

The one-day forum was a landmark event that brought together Traditional Owners and First Nations peoples, consultants, industry and government representatives for the first time in over a decade, to discuss Aboriginal heritage issues in Western Australia. It was an extremely well attended event, with over 230 people attending in person and an additional 60 via Zoom.

The day had strong Indigenous representation and voice, with the majority of speakers and panellists being First Nations people. Although there was a focus on the Pilbara, almost every region had a representative speaker. 

Key issued discussed throughout the day included the destruction of the Juukan Gorge Rockshelters, with a presentation given by the Puutu Kunti Kurrama and Pinikura Aboriginal Corporation, and the Draft Bill – with a presentation given by Ben Harvey from the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage and a short talk and Q&A session undertaken by WA Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Ben Wyatt.

A prime example of successful collaboration and cooperation between heritage associations to facilitate such an important conversation for Aboriginal heritage in WA.

7. [NEW ITEM] Reviving an Art Deco landmark in Yass, NSW

An Art Deco icon: the Liberty Theatre, Yass
Designed by architects Crick & Furse c.1939

At its gala opening on 14 December 1939, people gathered from miles around. They marvelled at the Liberty Theatre’s dazzling ‘ocean liner’ ambience. It was the work of Guy Crick and Bruce Furse, two leading theatre architects.

For many years, the Liberty served as an an entertainment hub for Yass and its surrounding communities. However, patronage gradually declined, and the cinema finally closed in 1974. Since then, the building has been used for an interior design business, an art gallery, real estate office and craft shop.

Today, the ocean liner is ready to be re-launched. Cinema heritage consultant Paul Brennan says the possibilities are endless: whether it serves as a movie palace, performing arts centre or multi-function entertainment venue.

The Liberty is also conveniently located, being a mere 40 minutes’ drive from Canberra. Federal MP Kirsty McBain recently toured the building, and she’s enthusiastic about its potential. 

In his book Picture Palace Architecture, architect Ross Thorne describes it as “an outstanding Art Deco building…”. 

An application has recently been made for State heritage listing, and the building is currently for sale.

To find out more, contact Paul Brennan by email. This is, as he puts it, “an entertainment venue for half the price of an apartment in Sydney.” 

You can get a glimpse of its glamorous future at this link.

8. [NEW ITEM] In Situ. Revue des patrimoines journal – Heritage values of 20th century architecture: what recognition?: call for papers | deadline 15 December 2020

CALL FOR PAPERS — Heritage values of 20th century architecture: what recognition? Critical review and international forward-looking vision

The journal In Situ. Revue des patrimoines offers heritage professionals and researchers the opportunity to disseminate and promote the results of their work on the knowledge, conservation and transmission of works and objects for which they are responsible or which they are studying. Its ambition is to promote exchanges between the different players and between the many disciplines that make up the heritage sciences. It makes the knowledge thus produced available to the public.

General context

The heritage values of 20th century architecture, whether they be cultural, social or technical, remain relatively complex to assess, and thus to share, due to lack of perspective and knowledge. The architectural and urban production of the second half of the 20th century was particularly prolific, sometimes remarkable, even exceptional.

The energy, ecological transition, the changing habits and lifestyles are leading to the gradual transformation of this built heritage reaching to the end of its life cycle.

Today, many countries with a post-industrial economy are confronted with the challenge to bring about changes in these buildings and neighbourhoods in order to meet the increasing social demand, without compromising their original architectural interest and qualities.

For more information, visit the In Situ. Revue des patrimoines website.

Deadline

If you would like to contribute to this issue, we thank you for sending us by 15 December 2020 a summary of your proposal with a maximum of 1,500 characters.

World Monuments Fund event: “Heritage Now” series – next session 31 October, 7am AEDT

“Heritage Now” Series – next session 31 October 7am AEDT | 8pm GMT

Whose heritage gets to be recognized and protected? How do heritage sites affect their surrounding environment and communities? Social justice, climate change, and sustainable tourism are only some of the considerations World Monuments Fund (WMF) integrates into our work. Cultural heritage exists in the present as much as it does in the past, and can play a fundamental role in our future.

WMF is therefore excited to be launching Heritage Now, a series of live events exploring cultural heritage at the nexus of current political, social, and environmental issues. The second session is on 31 October (AEDT): The Confederate Monument Debate: International Perspectives on the Future of Monuments with Difficult Pasts, inspired by the ongoing American Confederate monument debate.

DESIGN Canberra festival events, 9-29 November 2020

The Festival

Design is in Canberra’s DNA.

Canberra is one of the few designed national capital cities in the world and the local Ngunnawal People’s culture of invention has been in motion for more than 75,000 years. Walter and Marion Griffin’s visionary design a century ago, iconic experimental modernist architecture of the 1950s and 60s, and contemporary and sustainable design developments today, are some of the many ways that Canberra has been – and will always be – a living design laboratory.

From 9-29 November, DESIGN Canberra will experiment with new ideas and expand the most successful programs into new directions in the 2020 festival. Over 150 events, exhibitions, talks, tours, activations, markets, collaborations, artist studios and open homes will once again transform the nation’s capital into a new platform for the best in design. The festival, now in its 7th year, is for all interests and ages and most events are free.

Events planned to date

Paolo Stracchi talk: Designed in Italy, Made in Australia

Tuesday 10 November, 3.30-5.30pm
Building 6, Room C12, University of Canberra, Kirinari Street, Bruce ACT, Australia

Free, bookings essential, via this link (including more information)

Harry Seidler (1923–2006) and Pier Luigi Nervi (1891–1978) first met in Paris in 1955 on the construction site of the UNESCO Headquarters, designed by their common friend Marcel Breuer. Seven years later, the two met again, this time in Rome, to study the design for the iconic Australia Square Tower. The success of the iconic Sydney Tower set off a 15 year collaboration that took place between Italy and Australia. From 1963 to 1978, Seidler engaged Nervi for the design of some of his Australian commissions: Australia Square, the MLC Centre, the Theatre Royal lobby, the CTA Business Club and, in Canberra, the TGO Edmund Barton Building.

After the talk, join us for a small reception with refreshments and then an architecture stroll of Seidler’s TGO building at 6pm.

 

Seidler + Nervi: Walking tour (exterior) of the Edmund Barton Building

Tuesday 10 November, 6-7pm
$35, tickets via this link (including more information)
Meet at the corner of Kings Ave and Blackall St, Barton ACT 2600 (Edmund Barton Building)

Discover the unexpected Italian affinities of Harry Seidler’s TGO (Edmund Barton Building 1970-74) with Paolo Stracchi, architectural technology lecturer, University of Sydney, and curator of ‘Designed in Italy, Made in Australia: the Australian work of Pier Luigi Nervi’.

This small group tour will explore the exterior of the building, from publicly-accessible vantage points.

Seidler’s TGO is a valuable resource to help understand Canberra’s architectural and cultural history.

This is a small group architecture tour of the exterior of the Edmund Barton Building, which has been developed by DESIGN Canberra, in line with current COVID-safe restrictions. Numbers are limited and bookings are essential.

Paolo Stracchi will also present a talk about the Seidler-Nervi collaboration prior to the tour, at the University of Canberra.

 

Designed in Italy, Made in Australia: the Australian work of Pier Luigi Nervi

9-29 November, Monday-Friday, 10.30am-4.30pm
Mura Gadi Gallery, University of Canberra Library, Building 8, Bruce ACT, Australia

Through a series of original work and new documentation, the exhibition will, for the first time, showcase the comprehensive work developed during the 60s and 70s by the world-famous Italian engineer and his office in Rome for Harry Seidler.

Pier Luigi Nervi (1891–1979) was a structural engineer but also a revolutionary Italian master builder, architect and artist, who forged, through the invention of the Sistema Nervi – Nervi System – a new structural aesthetic for modern architecture. His pioneering system was adopted all around the world to build some of his most famous buildings: the Rome Olympic Palasports, the Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Assumption in San Francisco, the Field House at Dartmouth College in the USA, and many others.

In Australia, the Sistema Nervi was for the first time adopted with the construction of the Australia Square Tower, designed by Harry Seidler. The success of the famous circular tower led to a fruitful collaboration that lasted for more than 15 years.

The exhibition will shed light on unexpected affinities between the Italian and Australian construction industries, Roman and Milanese precedents used in modern Sydney, and an unlikely connection between an Italian factory and a revered Australian skyscraper. This exhibition will pay tribute to the two men and their shared Australian legacy, casting light on its unexpected Italian affinities and celebrating it into the future.

Curated by Paolo Stracchi (architectural technology lecturer, University of Sydney).

[UPDATED] “Archaeological World Heritage Sites – Cross-border Conservation, Communication, Cooperation” conference, Germany, 5-6 November 2020

UPDATES

  • Due to the pandemic, the Leipzig Monument Fair has been cancelled, so the conference will now take place exclusively online

  • To participate in the online conference, register by 4 November by email to ICOMOS Germany

On the occasion of the Federal Republic’s six-month Presidency of the Council of the European Union (July-December 2020), this conference, organised by ICOMOS Germany, will focus on archaeological World Heritage sites in Europe, the protection and preservation of which can only be guaranteed by the European states and their neighbours together.

There are currently 46 UNESCO World Heritage sites listed on the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany, 43 of which are World Cultural Heritage sites and three Natural Heritage sites. Eight of these World Heritage sites are cross-border and transnational sites. Hardly any other signatory state to the UNESCO World Heritage Convention has such a high proportion of multinational or transnational World Heritage sites as the Federal Republic of Germany. In particular, among the Cultural Heritage sites of the Federal Republic of Germany inscribed on the UNESCO list over the past decade, there are a number of archaeological World Heritage sites that have re-accentuated the Federal Republic’s World Heritage profile. These are for instance the Frontiers of the Roman Empire (Limes) (2005), the Prehistoric Pile Dwellings around the Alps (2011), the Caves and Ice Age Art in the Swabian Jura (2017), or the Archaeological Border Complex of Hedeby and Danevirke (2018).

State of Environment 2021 public consultation – extended deadline to have your say: Sunday 1 November

Due to a large amount of interest and a number of requests for additional time, the deadline for submissions to the national State of Environment Report (SoE) survey has been extended until midnight on Sunday 1 November.

Please note that, given the need for authors to have sufficient time to review and consider your responses, we will be unable to grant any further requests for extension.

_____________________________________________________

State of the Environment 2021 (SoE 2021) public consultation scoping papers are now available on Have Your Say for your feedback. We want your input to make this report as useful as possible.

There are twelve themes covering Air quality, Antarctica, Biodiversity, Climate, Coasts, Extreme events, Heritage, Indigenous knowledge, Inland water, Land, Marine and Urban.

Each thematic scoping paper has been drafted by independent authors including Indigenous experts integrating Indigenous knowledge and western science systems. This will ensure Indigenous views, values and knowledge are used to inform decision making for better environmental outcomes in caring for country.

Please review with our purpose in mind to: provide a strategic view to shape policy and action, engage with users to influence behaviour and assist with assessing our interventions as stewards for the Australian environment.

Scoping papers:

  • set out a proposed structure, indicative scope of the theme and linkages to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal framework
  • include an outline of key data sources and propose a number of potential case studies to illustrate emerging issues, current management initiatives and lessons learned
  • indicate the interlinkages between the themes and how these interlinkages might be managed as the authors develop their themes.

Visit this link to access these draft scoping papers, together with a short survey. The survey will close at midnight on Sunday 1 November.

Additional information

These documents are early drafts and the absence of a particular subject, topic or issue does not necessarily mean the authors will not include it as they draft their thematic content over the months ahead. Your feedback on subjects, topics or issues that you think should be included will help ensure that the reports reflect user needs; suggested case studies and policy or program responses are also requested.
