PROGRAMME
EnglishWelcome to ICOM Kyoto 2019

Dear colleagues of
the international museum
community,
It is with great pleasure and excitement that the membersof the ICOM Executive Board and I welcome you to the25th ICOM General Conference, to be held from 1st to
7th September, 2019 in Kyoto, Japan. I believe this will be
an exceptional experience for all of us, not only becauseof the multitude of topical discussions and events taking
place, but also because of the opportunity to closely
encounter a remarkably rich cultural heritage.
The theme of the ICOM General Conference 2019is Museums as Cultural Hubs: The Future of Tradition. The
topic is itself a statement about the central role museums
have come to play in the future of our diverse societies.
While sustaining their primary missions – collecting,conservation, communication, research, exhibition –they have transformed their practices in the pursuit ofrelevance for the communities they serve. They are now
more aware than ever of the power they have to establish
dialogue between cultures, to build bridges for a peacefulworld and to define a sustainable future.
The week-long ICOM General Conferences are thehigh points in the life of our organisation, with plenaries
and workshops, committee meetings and board elections,as well as unique opportunities for our members
and participants to meet and network. ICOM Kyoto
2019 is special in this respect – it will reach out to a
substantially bigger membership, which currently
gathers over 44,500 museum professionals representing
138 countries and territories. The location of this General
Conference, the city of Kyoto, will also attract a greaternumber of participants from the Asia-Pacific region,
enriching the wide variety of converging perspectives.
Another distinctive feature of ICOM Kyoto 2019 is
the diversity and topicality of the subjects that will betackled in the various sessions. They make this triennial
the forum it aims to be. The impact of the complexities ofthe 21st century on societies and museums will be debatedamong museum professionals from a vast range ofcultural spheres and expertise, informing the discussions
and debating possible solutions about sustainable
development, disaster resilience, decolonisation, or the4revision of the museum definition.
There is certainly much more than this to see,to taste, to discover in Kyoto. What better cultural
hub than this millenary city to discuss the future of
tradition? During this conference, you will enjoy many
opportunities to explore Kyoto and its surrounding areas.
I encourage you to wander around its narrow streets andmingle among its peoples with curiosity and wonder.
It is a pleasure and an honour for me to welcome you,together with our Japanese hosts, to this major ICOM
event. It is only with your participation and contributions
that the ICOM General Conference 2019 can be the
hub where creativity combines with knowledge andintercultural dialogue enhances mutual understanding
and peace building.
ICOM Kyoto 2019, I am confident, will yet be another
unforgettable reunion which we will cherish in ourmemories for many years to come.

Suay AKSOY
President of ICOM

Welcome to ICOM Kyoto 2019

Dear ICOM Kyoto 2019
participants,
As the president of the ICOM Kyoto 2019 Organising
Committee, I would like to extend a warm welcome
to all of you who have come from around the world totake part in the 25th International Council of Museums(ICOM) General Conference here in Japan’s ancient capitalof Kyoto.
ICOM Kyoto 2019 will be held in the Kyoto
International Conference Center (ICC Kyoto) and various
places around the city over a period of one week, from 1 to
7 September. The Organising Committee, in conjunction
with the local governments of Kyoto Prefecture andKyoto City, has been working to organise the General
Conference since 2015, when Kyoto was chosen to hostthis triennial event. It is our sincere hope that it will bemeaningful for all who participate.
The theme of this General Conference is “Museums
as Cultural Hubs: The Future of Tradition.” In ourincreasingly diverse and complex society, museums
are finding that they must play new social roles that go
beyond their traditional functions of preserving andexhibiting their collections. To help us think about such
issues, the conference will feature four plenary sessions
on 2, 3, and 4 September on the themes “Curating
Sustainable Futures,” “The Museum Definition: The
Backbone of ICOM,” “Museums in Times of Disaster,”and “Asian Art Museums & Collections around theWorld.” Each of these plenums will raise issues relating
to museums and society, which will also be addressed inworkshops or sessions during the week.
ICC Kyoto, the main venue for ICOM Kyoto 2019,is where the Kyoto Protocol was adopted in 1997 during
COP3, the Third Conference of the Parties to the United
Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. It
should be an ideal place for ICOM members to discuss
the new sociocultural roles of museums and related
issues such as sustainability and disaster risk reduction.
The three keynote speakers—architect Kengo Kuma,
photographer Sebastião Salgado, and contemporary
artist Cai Guo-Qiang—are all internationally renowned
figures with unique perspectives on the subject ofmuseums as cultural hubs.
At the Museum Fair and Expo Forum, held within the
ICC Kyoto during ICOM Kyoto 2019, over 140 museum-

related companies and organisations will exhibit theirgoods, services, and expertise. It should provide ICOM
members with an opportunity to learn about the breadthand diversity of museum-related businesses today.
Before, during, and after the General Conference,a full schedule of events has been planned for ICOM
participants in Kyoto and surrounding Kyoto prefecture.
The opening party will be held at ICC Kyoto and theclosing party at the Kyoto National Museum. Social
events in various parts of the city on other evenings
during the conference week will feature entertainment in
the form of traditional and contemporary performances,which offer a window onto the cultural traditions andinnovations that help link Kyoto’s past and future.
Additional events are being organised by various
museums and organisations. Participants can meetother members and learn more about the diversity of
Kyoto’s history and culture during the excursion day on
6 September.
Kyoto, the capital of Japan for over a millennium,
is an extraordinary city that perfectly embodies theconference theme. Kyoto has always been a place that
not only respects history and tradition but also adapts
and integrates new technology and innovations to carrysuch traditions into the future. The City of Kyoto has
been ranked 1st out of 815 cities in Japan in the 2019
National Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Ranking(Nihon Keizai Shimbun) . During this General Conference,
participants should have the opportunity both to interact
with other museum professionals as well as to experience
the distinctive culture of Kyoto and Japan. I hope thatICOM Kyoto 2019 will be a truly memorable event foreveryone involved, opening a new page in the history ofmuseums around the world.

Committees

ICOM is deeply committed to the protection ofheritage in danger, whether that is from natural or manmade disasters. The ICOM Disaster Risk Management
Committee (DRMC) gathers heritage professionals to
help countries following major emergency situations
or to limit and contain damage through preventive
conservation measures.
For the past 20 years, our organisation has also leadthe efforts in the fight against the illicit traffic in cultural
goods, particularly through the publication of the ICOMRed Lists, which classify the categories of endangered
cultural objects to prevent them from being sold orillegally exported. These tools have contributed to theidentification, recovery and restitution of thousands ofcultural objects from Iraq, Afghanistan and Mali.
ICOM considers the transmission of knowledge
and know-how a priority. To better serve the membersof developing museum communities around the world,
it organises capacity building workshops that facilitateworld-class training and cross-cultural dialogue between
museum professionals, such as the ICOM International
Training Centre for Museum Studies (ICOM-ITC) in
Beijing. Additionally, since 2016 our organisation has

been publishing the peer-reviewed journal Museum
International and last year it launched the researchbased monograph series ICOM Advances in Museum
Research.
As the main representative of the global museum
community in international forums, ICOM advocates forpolicies that will make the cultural heritage field thrive. It
also issues position statements regarding the challenges
it faces, such as the independence of museums or theneed of adequate public funding. ICOM also coordinates
International Museum Day on May 18th, a celebration
held in more than 150 countries and territories which
was established by our organisation in 1977.
We believe that museums can play a leading role in thedevelopment of sustainable and just societies. Last year
we established a new working group on Sustainability,
whose mission is to help us mainstream the Sustainable
Development Goals and the Paris Agreement acrossour range of activities while working towards climatechange adaptation and mitigations. In the near future,
ICOM will also be placing decolonisation in the heartof its activities with the aim of providing a roadmap for
communities, museums and governments.

The ICOM
General Conference10

is a renowned worldwide hub for exchanging on
topical issues museums tackle today, as well as the mostinnovative solutions. Since 1948, every three years,
our organisation gathers the international museum
community around a theme of crucial interest to foster
cultural exchange, promote international cooperation,and to inspire local actions in order to allow museums tocontinue their mission in service of society.
From Paris to Milan, after 24 successful editions,
ICOM’s flagship conference attracts around 3,000
participants from all international backgrounds,
renowned speakers and world-class experts thatcome together to attend debates, round tables, panels,
networking events and cultural activities.
The ICOM General Conference also hosts theInternational Museum Fair and EXPO Forum, where
museums and related companies presents inspiring
displays as well as the state of the art technology. This
fair provides a unique opportunity for a global audienceof heritage and museum experts to discover new ideas
and breakthrough solutions.

Conference ThemeThe theme of ICOM Kyoto 2019 General Conference is“Museums as Cultural Hubs: The Future of Tradition.” Inrecent years, museums around the world have begun tothink more seriously about how better to contribute tosociety. Amidst the many global political, economic, andsocial changes taking place around the world, and withthe underlying issues of climate change, poverty, conflict,natural disasters, human rights, and the environment,
it is becoming more and more urgent for museums
to consider how they might contribute to building apeaceful and sustainable future.
Every museum is unique, with its own distinctive
focus—be it history, art, natural history, science,
literature, or another subject. Likewise, each museum
has its own collection, history, and mode and scaleof presentation. But there is a limit to what museums
can do as entirely independent entities. It is when
museums connect with one another through regional,
national, and international networks that they gain thepotential to become more relevant and to better meetthe social expectations of the modern world. Such efforts
accordingly increase their effectiveness as “cultural
hubs” and their ability to move smoothly between the
traditions of the past and the innovations of the future.
The ICOM Kyoto 2019 General Conference isintended as a forum to debate how museums might
best fulfill society’s new expectations. The theme“Museums as Cultural Hubs” suggests, in part, thistriennial’s intended role as a gathering place to discussvarious topics, including connection, cooperation, andinformation sharing on matters of international interest.

About the ICOM General Conference

Museums as Cultural Hubs:
The Future of Tradition
Such collaborations might take place among museums
themselves or between museums and other cultural,
educational, and research institutions, communities,
experts, or stakeholders. ICOM is also reconsidering
the definition of “museum,” a process that should bringto the fore a variety of national and regional museumrelated issues and their potential solutions.
At the same time, the preservation and exhibition of
tangible and intangible cultural heritage have long been at
the heart of the museum mission. When thinking about
museums of the future, it is essential that we continue tovalue the resources making up our shared cultural legacy
as human beings, and to hand them down safely to future
generations. But we also have the obligation to sharesuch cultural heritage with today’s audiences throughexhibitions and other forms of outreach. For this reason,
too, museums function as “cultural hubs.” For there to bea “future of tradition,” cultural heritage must be a living,breathing entity, a bridge between past and future. In thissense, Kyoto, the thousand-year ancient capital of Japan,
which has long been known for its cherished traditions
as well as its pioneering innovations, is the ideal place forthis ICOM General Conference.
To help us consider the potential of museums
to bridge cultures, ICOM Kyoto conference willfeature keynote speeches from three world-renowned
intellectuals, as well as four plenary sessions and a varietyof panel discussions and other events. We hope that all
ICOM Kyoto 2019 participants will actively engage inthe discussions and come away with a shared vision formuseums in the new era.

11About the ICOM Kyoto 2019 Poster

Light Descends on Kyoto
Light Descends on Kyoto is the title of the painting chosen for the official ICOM Kyoto 2019 poster. It depicts a famous
Kyoto temple sculpture of the Bodhisattva Manjushri (Monju in Japanese) riding a lion, as a way to inject a breath of fresh
air into ICOM Kyoto 2019. The Chinese characters next to Manjushri express the spiritual concept of nondualism— theoneness of seeming opposites, such as salt and sugar, oil and water, man and woman, or good and evil.
The artist, Kinutani commented: “As human beings, we all seek to understand life more deeply. Through art andculture, we can open our hearts and see through dichotomies to cultivate an inner world that encapsulates life’s greatest
truths.” The work will remain on display in the ground-floor (1F) lobby of the Kyoto International Conference Center
during the General Conference until 4 September.

About the speech

The Age of Forest
In the 20th century, human beings began to undervalue
the force of nature. All of us lost reverence for nature andmisunderstood as if we could control everything.
Japanese people used to know the way to deal withnature. There was no use in trying to confront with it. It
is not an opponent that you could win over. You survive
and live with the nature only by understanding andrespecting it, and that wisdom stopped locals to build
houses below a certain height.
However, throughout the 20th century, people shifted
toward concrete and steel, to construct “big and strong”
architecture made of “strong” materials. Traditionalbuildings in wood, stone or earth were considered“weak” and “outdated.” Such modern architecture in theinternational style which was dominated by concreteand steel severed ties between human beings and theirplaces.

We are living in a post-industrial age in which“places/locations” play the leading role. The industrial
age with the framework of the production of “things”
and “nations” has ended. The world has changed to an
age where the “power of small places” is being reviewed.
Architecture is changing into an intermediary thatconnects people and places again. Museums are also
required to be important tools to reinforce the tie
between people and places. V&A Dundee we designed
was created based on such idea.
In the lecture I will discuss how I design architecturein the change of time, from the “Age of Concrete” to the“Age of Forest.”

About the speech

A Brazilian Amazon Forest Initiative
Much has been written about the destruction of the
Amazon forest, about the burning of large swathes ofprimary jungle to make way for cattle farms and soybean
plantations, the poisoning of rivers by freelance gold
miners and the penetration of virgin territory by illegal
loggers. All this and more is true.
Yet if vast tracts of the world’s greatest tropicalrainforest have been destroyed, in Brazil alone over 81
percent of it remains untouched. And it is the shared
responsibility of Brazil to preserve what remains. The
urgency to do so has led us to promote an initiative
to develop new and creative forms of protection andsustainable management of the Amazon region. In this,as age-old guardians of the forest, its indigenous peoples
can – and already do – play a central role.
Deforestation is an undeniable reality and it is mostacute on government or privately-owned land. But even
here, over 60 percent of the forest cover remains intact.
To explore this undamaged legacy, we have undertaken
a lengthy photographic journey to record the lives of
the indigenous peoples who live in harmony with theBrazilian Amazon forest. I have photographed tribes
among which the Kuikuro, Kamayura and Waura in the
Alto Xingú region as well as the Zoé, Awá, Yanomami,
Ashaninka, Yawanawa, Suruwará and Korubo ethnic
groups in the heart of the Amazon.
Along the way, we are building up an even broader
archive of the entire region, with ground and aerial
photographs of the complex maze of winding tributaries
that feed the Amazon and the dramatic changes of theirwater levels in wet and dry seasons as well as aerial imagesof both the virgin forest and plumes of smoke rising
thousands of feet where jungle is still being torched.
Our hope is that the resulting book and exhibitions
can serve as a catalyst for raising awareness of the need toprotect the Amazon forest and its native population andfor generating new approaches to exploiting its naturaland human resources without further damaging them.

CAI Guo-Qiang
ArtistPhoto by Yvonne Zhao, courtesy Cai Studio

Cai Guo-Qiang is an artist born in 1957 in Quanzhou, China. He
was trained in stage design at the Shanghai Theatre Academy from1981 to 1985, and his work has since crossed multiple mediums
within art including drawing, installation, video, and performance.
Cai began to experiment with gunpowder in his hometown
Quanzhou, and continued exploring its properties while living
in Japan from 1986 to 1995. This inquiry eventually led to thedevelopment of his signature outdoor explosion events. Drawing
upon Eastern philosophy and contemporary social issues as aconceptual basis, his artworks respond to culture and history andestablish an exchange between viewers and the larger universearound them. His explosion art and installations are imbued witha force that transcends the two-dimensional plane to engage withsociety and nature.
Cai was awarded the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale in1999, the Hiroshima Art Prize in 2007, and the Fukuoka Asian
Culture Prize in 2009. In 2012, he was honored as a Laureate forthe prestigious Praemium Imperiale, and in the same year, he wasnamed as one of the five artists to receive the first U.S. Departmentof State Medal of Arts for his outstanding commitment tointernational cultural exchange. He currently lives and works in
New York.

About the speech

My Museum YearsCai Guo-Qiang recounts how he has interacted withthe museum system over the past several decades
through a series of projects across the globe. These
include his current solo exhibition at the National
Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne, which is taking
place in conjunction with their exhibition of the famed
Terracotta Warriors; his Everything is Museum projects
that founded a series of museums in Iwaki, Fukushima
and other areas considered difficult by contemporary
trends in museum-building; his solo exhibitions at major
institutions of Western Art—the Pushkin in Moscow, thePrado in Madrid, the Uffizi in Florence, and the National
Archaeological Museum of Naples; as well as his curated
exhibition Non-Brand 非品牌, with works drawn fromthe collection of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum.

How do museum classics inspire artistic adventures
today, and how do museum curators act as “shamans”
to connect artists with art history? How do we build
museums that will be embraced by the local public, as
opposed to those that are merely cultural tourism brands
for foreigners? What is the role of the museum for local
communities, particularly in an age where erecting
museums has become fashionable on a global scale andcontemporary art increasingly refined and elitist?
