Abstract (in English)

International conference, Leipzig, 7-9 November 2018. - In accordance with the motto “Sharing Heritage” of the European Cultural Heritage Year 2018, ICOMOS Russia and ICOMOS Germany as well as partner organisations prepared an international conference on model projects of 20th century heritage conservation. The meeting was scheduled as part of the “denkmal – Trade Fair for Conservation, Restoration and Old Building Renovation” and of the “MUTEC – International Trade Fair for Museum and Exhibition Technology” in Leipzig (7–10 November 2018). The joint letter of intent and cooperation signed at the conference by the Presidents of ICOMOS Russia and ICOMOS Germany in the presence of representatives of the ICOMOS International Scientific Committee “Shared Built Heritage” also documents the intention to intensify the cross-border cooperation of both countries in the field of heritage. Monuments and memorials of the more recent past represent and reflect a vital part of our common history and identity in Europe. On the occasion of the trade fairs denkmal and MUTEC the international conference presented, compared and discussed successful measures of conservation, restoration and revitalisation of monuments and sites from the 20th century. The conference and the proceedings were intended to provide an interim balance of the achievements to preserve threatened young heritage and to promote international cooperation in conserving recent tangible heritage for future generations in Europe. At the hub of the Leipzig Trade Fair, special attention was given to heritage dialogue and conservation partnership between Eastern and Western Europe. In each thematic block, two co-presentations from Western and Eastern Europe supplemented the German and Russian contributions to the topic. The five main topics of the conference covered a wide range of heritage topics, using successfully implemented model projects as examples. Responsibilities of archaeological monument conservation and contemporary archaeology were the first topics, followed by the heritage of modern civil engineering and garden monument conservation. The conference was concluded with a section on the conservation and retrofitting of the architectural heritage of post-war modernism and one on the restoration of works of art that are part of post-1945 architectural monuments.
