Die Venusgrotte im Schlosspark Linderhof. Illusionskunst und High Tech im 19. Jahrhundert. Ziesemer, John (ed.). Berlin, Hendrik Bäβler Verlag, 2019 (ICOMOS - Hefte des Deutschen Nationalkomitees LXX). [Eng & Ger]

ISBN 978-3-945880-45-6

"The Venus Grotto in the park of Linderhof Castle in the Upper Bavarian community of Ettal in southern Bavaria is a unique total work of art of the 19th century. Commissioned by the Bavarian King Ludwig II and significantly co-designed by him, the building combines technological innovation and illusionistic staging art to create an extraordinary experience space that corresponds more to an interactive theatre stage than to traditional grotto architecture. Diagrams of distant and fantastic worlds, the Blue Grotto in Capri and opera scenes by Richard Wagner were realised with the greatest effort in a single location; today they provide a unique view of the technical and artistic innovations of the century before last.
Ludwig's claim to create a perfect art experience with all available means led to extraordinary technical and artistic achievements at the Venus Grotto, such as one of the world's first electricity plants for the illumination of the grotto, novel constructive and structural solutions for a natural-realistic grotto architecture and unique theatre effects in the form of light productions and an artificial waterfall."

Sens et renaissances du patrimoine architectural. Mouton, Benjamin. Paris : Cité de l’architecture & du patrimoine / Éditions des Cendres, 2018. 416 p., ill. [Fre]

ISBN 978-2-86742-278-2

Une plongée au pays de l’architecture, des expériences et des réflexions qu’elle a inspirées, et qui se veulent à la fois témoignages et éléments d’une méthodologie. Où en est-on dans la distinction entre le patrimoine architectural et le monument historique ? Et dans le brouillard de la mondialisation, quels rôles vont-ils être amenés à jouer demain pour venir au secours des identités culturelles à la dérive ? Quelles mesures pratiques sont requises pour répondre à ce défi ? C’est au pays de l’espoir nécessaire que nous sommes attendus pour assurer non seulement la survie, mais le sourire du patrimoine architectural.
Ce livre est une somme sur l’histoire des pratiques de l’architecture dédiée à la sauvegarde du patrimoine. Deux cents ans d’observations, de mises en œuvre et d’inventions. L’ouvrage est à la fois analytique et didactique, proposant à travers d’innombrables exemples – allant des bâtiments les plus prestigieux (Notre-Dame, Quimper, Invalides…) aux plus humbles (places de village, habitat rural, constructions composites…) – un ensemble de voies possibles pour mobiliser avec intelligence les architectures du passé et les attacher à notre temps.

Angkor Wat: A Transcultural History of Heritage. Volume 1: Angkor in France. From Plaster Casts to Exhibition Pavilions. Volume 2: Angkor in Cambodia. From Jungle Find to Global Icon. Falser, Michael. Berlin : de Gruyter, 2020. Vol.: 508 p., ill.; Vol. II: 642 p., ill. [Eng]

ISBN 978-3-11-033572-9

This book enravels the formation of the modern concept of cultural heritage by charting its colonial, postcolonial-nationalist and global trajectories. By bringing to light many unresearched dimensions of the twelfth-century Cambodian temple of Angkor Wat during its modern history, the study argues for a conceptual, connected history that unfolded within the transcultural interstices of European and Asian projects. With more than 1400 black-and-white and colour illustrations of historic photographs, architectural plans and samples of public media, the monograph discusses the multiple lives of Angkor Wat over a 150 year-long period from the 1860s to the 2010s.

Volume I (Angkor in France) reconceptualizes the Orientalist, French-colonial 'discovery' of the temple in the nineteenth century and brings to light the manifold strategies at play in its physical representations as plaster cast substitutes in museums and as hybrid pavilions in universal and colonial exhibitions in Marseille and Paris from 1867 to 1937.

 Volume 2 (Angkor in Cambodia) covers, for the first time in this depth, the various on-site restoraiton efforts inside the 'Archaeological Park of Angkor' from 1907 until 1970, and the temple's gradual canonisation as a symbol of national identity during Cambodia's troublesome docolonisation (1953-89), from independance to Khmer Rouge terror and Vietnamese occupation, and, finally, as a global icon of UNESCO World Heritage since 1992 until today.

"The Cold War and the Iron Curtain have left behind a thinking in terms of incompatible contradictions. As such, 20th-century European architectural history still often juxtaposed avant-garde trends and traditionalist tendencies as incompatible extremes. In Germany, this antagonistic notion peaked in the 1950s when the West was identified with “international modernism” and the East with building in “national traditions”. Berlin has two built manifestoes of this political and aesthetic confrontation: The Karl-Marx-Allee (formerly Stalinallee), constructed between 1951 and 1958, and the Internationale Bauausstellung Interbau from 1957. The architectural turn to postmodernism since the 1980s and the political turnaround after 1990 led to a change in this post-war perception. The tradition-conscious and the progress-oriented heritage of post-war architecture are enjoying growing appreciation in many circles in both the East and the West. With the state of Berlin’s application (2013) jointly proposing two sections of Karl-Marx-Allee in the East and all units of Interbau in the West for the German registration list of the world heritage nomination at UNESCO, the usual contrastive pair has been broken up and made conducive for a new approach.

The international conference Rethinking Modernity aims to place the current Berlin-based debate in a larger context on the basis of parallels and counterexamples from eastern and western Europe, facilitating international examination and assessment by means of historical analyses and typological comparisons. In a modernist understanding which extends up to the present day, tradition and progress condition and permeate each other, remaining distinguishable but also inextricably linked."

ISBN : 978-2-9543731-2-6

La Charte de Venise s’attache à la notion de Monument Historique : comment, en 50 ans, a-t-elle été appliquée, dans ses principaux domaines d’action : la conservation, la restauration, l’affectation ? Est-elle restée fidèle à l’esprit initial ?
Est-elle toujours une référence aujourd’hui, devant l’élargissement du champ patrimonial : patrimoine industriel, patrimoine du XXème siècle, ensembles urbains et ruraux, ensembles territoriaux, patrimoine mondial ? Appliquée au patrimoine matériel, prend-elle en compte les valeurs immatérielle ? Le contexte de l’Année Européenne du Patrimoine Culturel 2018 a offert l’opportunité d’étudier ces questions, qu'ICOMOS France a décidé d’évaluer à la lumière des pratiques, en associant les comités européens d’ICOMOS. Ce travail a été restitué lors de la journée de séminaire du 18 octobre 2018. Il s’est articulé autour de trois grands thèmes :
• L’évolution historique ;
• L’évolution linguistique ;
• L’évolution des pratiques en Europe.

La présente publication apporte onze nouveaux articles de différents pays, axés en particulier sur le patrimoine industriel de l'Europe du Sud-Est, où, après la chute de la Yougoslavie, le nouvel ordre économique a conduit à l'effondrement de nombreuses usines et villes industrielles de la période socialiste, et actuellement en voie de déclin. La nature des conditions économiques et politiques de l'Europe du Sud-Est met constamment et de plus en plus au défi la survie du patrimoine industriel - même des monuments "classés". L'intérêt public n'est pas toujours suffisamment exprimé dans le processus décisionnel. Il en va de même des attentes des communautés patrimoniales associées au patrimoine industriel qui ont encore peu de moyens de s'exprimer et d'être incluses. Ces changements qui affectent le patrimoine industriel et son rôle dans la société exigent de nouvelles réponses et des solutions innovantes.

The cultural landscape of the Wendland Circular Villages. ctes de la conférence et de la réunion annuelle 2016 d'ICOMOS CIAV

ISBN 978-3-943164-46-6

Les villages circulaires du Wendland forment un paysage culturel historique exceptionnel et unique, qui permet de faire l'expérience des peuplements circulaires planifiés et des modes d'occupation du sol adjacents de l'agriculture de subsistance médiévale, qui ont été préservés dans leur intégralité et leur forme architecturale des XVIIIe et XIXe siècles, jusqu'à nos jours. La densité élevée de nombreux villages circulaires extrêmement bien conservés dans un espace confiné, ainsi que le relief qui les entoure, constituent un paysage culturel qui a pleinement conservé son esthétique agricole et vernaculaire. La lisibilité claire de la typologie du village, formée par des maisons à nefs à pignon disposées en cercle autour d'un centre ouvert, et la bonne conservation des parcelles de terrain planifiées axialement qui s'étendent du centre du village et des prairies communes entre les établissements humains, font de ce paysage culturel un exemple unique au monde d'établissement humain traditionnel d'Europe centrale et d'utilisation des terres.

Notant la rareté de ces paysages vernaculaires en Europe centrale, la conférence "Conservation et réhabilitation du patrimoine vernaculaire" vise à s'inspirer des villages circulaires pour débattre des défis contemporains en matière d'intégrité de conservation et d'authenticité du patrimoine vernaculaire en Europe centrale tout en considérant la nécessité et les défis des futurs développements démographiques et des infrastructures.

Sens et renaissances du patrimoine architectural. Mouton, Benjamin. Paris : Cité de l’architecture & du patrimoine / Éditions des Cendres, 2018. 416 p., ill. [Fre]

ISBN 978-2-86742-278-2

A dive into the country of architecture, the experiences and reflections it has inspired, and which are intended to be both testimonials and elements of a methodology. Where do we stand in the distinction between architectural heritage and historical monuments? And in the fog of globalization, what roles will they play tomorrow in rescuing cultural identities adrift? What practical measures are required to respond to this challenge? It is in the land of necessary hope that we are expected to ensure not only the survival, but the smile of architectural heritage.
This book is a summation of the history of architectural practices dedicated to the safeguarding of heritage. Two hundred years of observations, implementations and inventions. The book is both analytical and didactic, proposing through countless examples - from the most prestigious buildings (Notre-Dame, Quimper, Invalides...) to the most humble (village squares, rural housing, composite constructions...) - a set of possible ways to intelligently mobilize the architectures of the past and attach them to our time.

Angkor Wat: A Transcultural History of Heritage. Volume 1: Angkor in France. From Plaster Casts to Exhibition Pavilions. Volume 2: Angkor in Cambodia. From Jungle Find to Global Icon. Falser, Michael. Berlin : de Gruyter, 2020. Vol.: 508 p., ill.; Vol. II: 642 p., ill. [Eng]

ISBN 978-3-11-033572-9

This book enravels the formation of the modern concept of cultural heritage by charting its colonial, postcolonial-nationalist and global trajectories. By bringing to light many unresearched dimensions of the twelfth-century Cambodian temple of Angkor Wat during its modern history, the study argues for a conceptual, connected history that unfolded within the transcultural interstices of European and Asian projects. With more than 1400 black-and-white and colour illustrations of historic photographs, architectural plans and samples of public media, the monograph discusses the multiple lives of Angkor Wat over a 150 year-long period from the 1860s to the 2010s.

Volume I (Angkor in France) reconceptualizes the Orientalist, French-colonial 'discovery' of the temple in the nineteenth century and brings to light the manifold strategies at play in its physical representations as plaster cast substitutes in museums and as hybrid pavilions in universal and colonial exhibitions in Marseille and Paris from 1867 to 1937.

 Volume 2 (Angkor in Cambodia) covers, for the first time in this depth, the various on-site restoraiton efforts inside the 'Archaeological Park of Angkor' from 1907 until 1970, and the temple's gradual canonisation as a symbol of national identity during Cambodia's troublesome docolonisation (1953-89), from independance to Khmer Rouge terror and Vietnamese occupation, and, finally, as a global icon of UNESCO World Heritage since 1992 until today.

Modern neu denken: Architektur und Städtebau des 20. Jahrhunderts, zwischen Avantgarde und Tradition / Rethinking Modernity: Architecture and Urban planning of the 20th Century, between Avant-Garde and Tradition. Ziesemer, John (ed.). Berlin, Karl Krämer Verlag Stuttgart, 2019. 192 p., illus. (ICOMOS Hefte des Deutschen Nationalkomitees, LXIX) [Ger andEng]

ISBN : 978-3-7828-4058-3

"The Cold War and the Iron Curtain have left behind a thinking in terms of incompatible contradictions. As such, 20th-century European architectural history still often juxtaposed avant-garde trends and traditionalist tendencies as incompatible extremes. In Germany, this antagonistic notion peaked in the 1950s when the West was identified with “international modernism” and the East with building in “national traditions”. Berlin has two built manifestoes of this political and aesthetic confrontation: The Karl-Marx-Allee (formerly Stalinallee), constructed between 1951 and 1958, and the Internationale Bauausstellung Interbau from 1957. The architectural turn to postmodernism since the 1980s and the political turnaround after 1990 led to a change in this post-war perception. The tradition-conscious and the progress-oriented heritage of post-war architecture are enjoying growing appreciation in many circles in both the East and the West. With the state of Berlin’s application (2013) jointly proposing two sections of Karl-Marx-Allee in the East and all units of Interbau in the West for the German registration list of the world heritage nomination at UNESCO, the usual contrastive pair has been broken up and made conducive for a new approach.

The international conference Rethinking Modernity aims to place the current Berlin-based debate in a larger context on the basis of parallels and counterexamples from eastern and western Europe, facilitating international examination and assessment by means of historical analyses and typological comparisons. In a modernist understanding which extends up to the present day, tradition and progress condition and permeate each other, remaining distinguishable but also inextricably linked."

Climate risk assessment for heart of neolithic Orkney World Heritage property.Day JC, Heron SF, Markham A, Downes J, Gibson J, Hyslop E, Jones RH, Lyall A. Edinburgh, Historic Environment Scotland, 2019. 88 p. [Eng]

This report describes outcomes from a workshop in Orkney, Scotland (April 2019) to apply the Climate Vulnerability Index (CVI).

The CVI is a new methodology developed to rapidly assess climate impacts – both to Outstanding Universal Value (OUV) and the associated ‘community’ (local, domestic and international) – for all types of World Heritage properties (natural, cultural or mixed). In its first application to a cultural World Heritage property, the CVI process was undertaken for the ‘Heart of Neolithic Orkney’ (HONO).

Retour à l'esprit de la Charte de Venise / Back to ths spirit of the Venice charter. Summary and conclusions of the seminar organized by ICOMOS France.Mouton, Benjamin (ed.), Schneider, Dominique (ed.). Paris, ICOMOS France, 2019. 43 p. [Fre & Eng]

ISBN : 978-2-9543731-2-6

The Venice Charter focuses on the concept of a Historic Monument. How, in 50 years, has it been applied to its main topics of action: conservation, restoration, use? Did it remain true to its initial spirit? Is it still a reference today, in view of the widening of the heritage field: industrial heritage, twentieth century heritage, urban and rural complexes, territorial complexes, world heritage? Applied to tangible heritage, does it take intangible values into account?
The context of the European Year of Cultural Heritage 2018 provided the opportunity to consider these issues, which ICOMOS France decided to assess in the light of current practices, in association with the European ICOMOS Committees. The one-day workshop which took place on 18 October 2018 revolved around three broad themes:
• Historical development;
• Linguistic development; and
• The development of practices in Europe.

The present publication brings eleven new articles from different countries, especially focused on south-east Europe industrial heritage, where after the fall of Yugoslavia the new economic order led to the collapse of many industrial factories and towns from the socialist period, now in a process of decline. The nature of economic and political circumstances in south-east Europe are constantly and increasingly challenging the survival of industrial heritage - even "listed" monuments. Public interest is not always sufficiently expressed in decision-making process. The same is true about excpectations of heritage communities associated with industrial heritage which still have little means of being expressed and taken on board. [...] These changes affecting industrial heritage and its role in society require new responses and innovative solutions.

The cultural landscape of the Wendland Circular Villages.Proceedings of the 2016 conference and annual meeting of ICOMOS CIAV

ISBN 978-3-943164-46-6

The Wendland circular villages form an exceptional and unique historical cultural landscape, which allows experiencing the planned circular settlements and the adjoining land-use patterns of medieval subsistence farming, which have been preserved in their entirety and architectural form of the 18th and 19th century, to this day. The intense density of numerous, extremely well-preserved circular villages in a confined space, and the interjacent terrain which they affect, constitute a cultural landscape which has fully preserved its agricultural and vernacular aesthetics. The clear legibility of the village typology, formed by gable-ended aisled houses circularly arranged around an open centre, and the good preservation of the axially planned land parcels extending from the village centres and shared meadowlands between settlements, makes this cultural landscape a globally unique example of a Central European traditional human settlement and land use form.
Noting the rarity of such vernacular landscapes in Central Europe, the conference "Conservation and Rehabilitation of Vernacular Heritage" aims to draw on the inspiration of the circular villages to discuss contemporary challenges in the conservation integrity and authenticity of vernacular heritage in Central Europe while considering the need for and challenges of future demographic and infrastructure developments.

While there is an increasing distance between political discourse and citizen expression, consulting and debating before taking any public decision is already considered a necessary obligation in France when it comes to environment issues. Public participation to measures to protect and manage the heritage that forms our cultural heritage and common good is becoming the rule.
How to meet this obligation of consultation? Which methods should be used in order to guarantee a constructive dialogue between heritage stakeholders and to reduce the distance between the knowledge of the experts summoned and the views of users supported by many activist associations?
Diverse consultation mechanisms implemented in response to a diversity of heritage objects reflect new forms of citizen involvement: properties inscribed on the World Heritage List, historic centres, natural sites or landscapes...

The globalization that began centuries ago with trade, technology, culture, politics and military exchanges between different people, increasing progressively its intensity until our days, became originator of a heritage created exactly in the meeting of cultures. This new transcultural heritage (or hybrid heritage) presents a whole range of different complexities that makes more or less complicated its safeguarding and preservation for coming generations. 
Questions concerning the safeguarding of this kind of heritage involve a vast set of themes: the intense polemic about the preservation of architectural structures, whose memory can allude symbolically to cultures
considered as oppressors; the debate on authenticity, generated by confrontations between patrimonial values coming from cultures involved in the creation of each particular transcultural heritage – which could differ substantially, and therefore should be taken in consideration in the moment to decide how to act to preserve
that heritage –; the problematic related to migratory fluxes; the ideological instrumentalisation of architectural heritage; the touristic mercantilization of cultural monuments; and several other related themes, demanding the increment of the debate on them.

Alors que l’on constate un éloignement de plus en plus grand entre discours politiques et expressions citoyennes, l’obligation de concertation et de débats avant toute décision publique s’impose déjà en France en matière d’environnement. La participation des publics aux mesures de protection et de gestion des patrimoines qui forment notre héritage culturel et notre bien commun devient la règle. 
Comment répondre à l’obligation de concertation ? Selon quelles méthodes garantir un dialogue constructif entre les acteurs du patrimoine pour atténuer la distance entre les savoirs des experts convoqués et la parole des usagers relayée par de nombreuses associations militantes ?
Différents dispositifs de concertation mis en oeuvre en réponse à une diversité d’objets patrimoniaux témoignent de nouvelles formes d’implication des citoyens : biens inscrits sur la Liste du patrimoine mondial, centres historiques, sites naturels ou paysages...

The globalization that began centuries ago with trade, technology, culture, politics and military exchanges between different people, increasing progressively its intensity until our days, became originator of a heritage created exactly in the meeting of cultures. This new transcultural heritage (or hybrid heritage) presents a whole range of different complexities that makes more or less complicated its safeguarding and preservation for coming generations.
Questions concerning the safeguarding of this kind of heritage involve a vast set of themes: the intense polemic about the preservation of architectural structures, whose memory can allude symbolically to cultures
considered as oppressors; the debate on authenticity, generated by confrontations between patrimonial values coming from cultures involved in the creation of each particular transcultural heritage – which could differ substantially, and therefore should be taken in consideration in the moment to decide how to act to preserve
that heritage –; the problematic related to migratory fluxes; the ideological instrumentalisation of architectural heritage; the touristic mercantilization of cultural monuments; and several other related themes, demanding the increment of the debate on them.
