2018 CIVVIH annual meeting, scientific symposium « heritage & sustainable city » : history, archeology, antiques and sustainable city / rencontre annuelle du CIVVIH 2018, symposium scientifique « patrimoine & ville durable » : histoire, archéologie, antiquités et ville durable. Bruguerolle, Antoine (ed). 2019. 62 p. [Same text in Eng & Fre] The subject of the permanence of Antiquity within the city is emphasized by the administration of the city of Nîmes and echoes the scientific reflection and works lead by the CIVVIH experts. To widen the work field and allow as large as possible an involvement –beyond the notion of Antiquity– an evocation of history and archeology was proposed and met the making of the sustainable city and new urbanistic practices, planning and architecture. Three transversal themes were suggested to shed light on experiences and exemplary case studies on the subject. Each theme has been the subject of a learning session involving a theoretical introduction followed by seven to eight papers showing significant practices or experiences and concluded by a round table and open debate supervised by a moderator.

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.

Significant books published by ICOMOS members 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.

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.
