MUSEUM 2013 Inclusive Museum Conference LETTER FROM NATIONAL GALLERY CONFERENCE HOST Dear Delegates, It gives me great pleasure to welcome so many of you from both Denmark and countries far and wide. The Sixth International Conference on the Inclusive Museum is indeed a milestone event for us bringing together diverse museum and heritage professionals, policy makers and researchers as well as graduate students into an inter-disciplinary forum and series of exchanges. As your host it is my honour to create the space for intercultural dialogue and international exchanges. I am also delighted that we are going to have an opportunity to facilitate the Museum Day Seminar on the Park Museums which is an initiative launched by us on 18 March this year. If the museum is considered a civic space, how does one bring the neighbourhood approach to museum clusters so that the stakeholder communities and the custodians of collections can promote active citizenship? When Professor Amareswar Galla approached me last year to host the Conference, I readily accepted his invitation and put in place support through the staff at the National Gallery of Denmark. Berit Anne Larsen and Julie Maria Johnsen and several other staff and museums partners have worked tirelessly to make the Conference an outstanding opportunity for addressing inclusion and active citizenship in the world of museums. The final program far exceeds our expectations. The Danish Agency for Culture has been generous in sponsoring and supporting us in this venture. The future of museums is about partnerships and we are proud to have such a productive partnership with Common Ground Publishing and the International Institute for the Inclusive Museum. I wish you all the best for your presentations and discussions. Yours Sincerely, Karsten Ohrt Director, SMK / National Gallery of Denmark 2013 Inclusive Museum Conference LETTER FROM COMMON GROUND CONFERENCE HOST Dear Delegate, Welcome to the Sixth International Conference on the Inclusive Museum. The conference is a cross-disciplinary forum which brings together museum practitioners, researchers and teachers to discuss the nature, objectives and future shape of the museum. The conference is held annually in different locations around the world, each selected for a particular relationship to an innovative museum or local museum practices. The conversations at this conference weave between the theoretical and the empirical, research and application, institutional pragmatics and social idealism. In professional and disciplinary terms, the conference traverses a broad sweep to construct a transdisciplinary dialogue which encompasses a broad variety of perspectives and practices. In addition to the Inclusive Museum Conference, Common Ground also hosts conferences and publishes journals in other areas of critical intellectual human concern, including aging, food studies, diversity, learning, sustainability, and the interdisciplinary social sciences, to name several. Our aim is to create new forms of knowledge community, where people meet in person and also remain connected virtually making the most of the potentials for access using digital media. We are also committed to creating a more accessible, open and reliable peer review process. Alongside opportunities for well-known academics, we are creating new publication openings for scholars from developing countries and for researchers from institutions that are historically teaching-focused. We would like to invite conference participants to develop publishing proposals for original works or for edited collections of papers drawn from the journal which address an identified theme. Finally, please join our online conversation by subscribing to our monthly email newsletter, and subscribe to our Facebook, RSS, or Twitter feeds at http://onmuseums.com/. We are also proud to announce the launch of Scholar, created in an association between Common Ground and the University of Illinois. If the social glue that holds together Facebook is 'friends' and

  • Monuments, Materiality, and Meaning in the Classical Archaeology of Anatolia
    MONUMENTS, MATERIALITY, AND MEANING IN THE CLASSICAL ARCHAEOLOGY OF ANATOLIA by Daniel David Shoup A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Classical Art and Archaeology) in The University of Michigan 2008 Doctoral Committee: Professor Elaine K. Gazda, Co-Chair Professor John F. Cherry, Co-Chair, Brown University Professor Fatma Müge Göçek Professor Christopher John Ratté Professor Norman Yoffee Acknowledgments Athena may have sprung from Zeus’ brow alone, but dissertations never have a solitary birth: especially this one, which is largely made up of the voices of others. I have been fortunate to have the support of many friends, colleagues, and mentors, whose ideas and suggestions have fundamentally shaped this work. I would also like to thank the dozens of people who agreed to be interviewed, whose ideas and voices animate this text and the sites where they work. I offer this dissertation in hope that it contributes, in some small way, to a bright future for archaeology in Turkey. My committee members have been unstinting in their support of what has proved to be an unconventional project. John Cherry’s able teaching and broad perspective on archaeology formed the matrix in which the ideas for this dissertation grew; Elaine Gazda’s support, guidance, and advocacy of the project was indispensible to its completion. Norman Yoffee provided ideas and support from the first draft of a very different prospectus – including very necessary encouragement to go out on a limb. Chris Ratté has been a generous host at the site of Aphrodisias and helpful commentator during the writing process.

  • Six Canonical Projects by Rem Koolhaas
    5 Six Canonical Projects by Rem Koolhaas has been part of the international avant-garde since the nineteen-seventies and has been named the Pritzker Rem Koolhaas Architecture Prize for the year 2000. This book, which builds on six canonical projects, traces the discursive practice analyse behind the design methods used by Koolhaas and his office + OMA. It uncovers recurring key themes—such as wall, void, tur montage, trajectory, infrastructure, and shape—that have tek structured this design discourse over the span of Koolhaas’s Essays on the History of Ideas oeuvre. The book moves beyond the six core pieces, as well: It explores how these identified thematic design principles archi manifest in other works by Koolhaas as both practical re- Ingrid Böck applications and further elaborations. In addition to Koolhaas’s individual genius, these textual and material layers are accounted for shaping the very context of his work’s relevance. By comparing the design principles with relevant concepts from the architectural Zeitgeist in which OMA has operated, the study moves beyond its specific subject—Rem Koolhaas—and provides novel insight into the broader history of architectural ideas. Ingrid Böck is a researcher at the Institute of Architectural Theory, Art History and Cultural Studies at the Graz Ingrid Böck University of Technology, Austria. “Despite the prominence and notoriety of Rem Koolhaas … there is not a single piece of scholarly writing coming close to the … length, to the intensity, or to the methodological rigor found in the manuscript

  • Copenhagen Arbitration Day
    2020 COPENHAGEN ARBITRATION DAY The Arbitrator and the Law April 2, at the House of Industry Welcome to the COPENHAGEN ARBITRATION DAY 2020 Dear Colleagues, The Danish Institute of Arbitration (DIA) and ICC Denmark are very pleased to welcome you to the third Copenhagen Arbitration Day. We are honored to present an interesting program and it is with great pleasure that we thank our speakers, which are some of the most recognized practitioners in the field. The event takes place in the House of Industry - the headquarters of the Confederation of Danish Industry - which is located in the heart of Copenhagen just between the Tivoli Gardens and the Copenhagen City Hall where the vibrant city is mirrored in the ever-evolving color and glass facade of the building. The Copenhagen Arbitration Day is the central event of the Danish arbitration communi- ty’s calendar as it presents an unequalled opportunity to exchange knowledge on trends within the field of international arbitration and to create and renew a network of colleagues and business contacts in a cozy atmosphere. The conference will be followed by a drinks reception and dinner at the historical Hotel Scandic Palace. Situated in City Hall Square, it is just a few minutes walk from the conference venue. During the dinner, the International Arbitrator José Rosell will deliver a keynote address. The Copenhagen Arbitration Day will be followed by the second annual Nordic Arbitra- tion Day on Friday 3 April 2020, which is a full-day conference organized by the young arbitration practitioners’ associations in the Nordic region.
