  • Commune De Prangins Municipalité Préavis No 17/12 Au Conseil
    Commune de Prangins Municipalité Préavis No 17/12 au Conseil Communal Demande d’approbation de la modification des statuts de l’association à buts multiples des communes du district de Nyon et demande d’adhésion à la nouvelle Organisation Régionale de Protection Civile du district de Nyon (ORPC) Violeta Seematter, Municipale responsable Monsieur le Président, Mesdames, Messieurs les Conseillers communaux, 1- Préambule Le projet de réorganisation de la protection civile vaudoise a débuté en 2007 sous la dénomination "projet Agile". Bien que ce projet soit actuellement gelé par la Cheffe du Département, les régions ont été encouragées à se conformer au nouveau découpage des districts. Les actuelles 21 régions de protection civile seront ainsi ramenées à 10 correspondant géographiquement aux districts. Dans le principe, les organisations régionales ne subissent qu’un changement dans leur périmètre d’action puisqu’il s’agit de ramener les différentes organisations selon le nouveau découpage des districts (DECTER). Chaque région disposera d’une personnalité juridique. La direction du projet préconise de conserver la structure actuelle, composée d’un Conseil intercommunal comme organe délibérant et d’un Comité directeur en tant qu’organe d’exécution. Chaque organisation régionale est dirigée par un Commandant qui dispose d’un état-major et d’un secrétariat. Il est responsable de toutes les mesures de protection civile applicables à sa région et en informe son Comité directeur. Dans le cadre légal défini par les autorités cantonales, la région détermine ses infrastructures administratives et logistiques. Ainsi, pour notre district, il s’agit de valider la venue de quinze nouvelles communes dans notre organisation.

    Building National Museums in Europe 1750-2010. Conference proceedings from EuNaMus, European National Museums: Identity Politics, the Uses of the Past and the European Citizen, Bologna 28-30 April 2011. Peter Aronsson & Gabriella Elgenius (eds) EuNaMus Report No 1. Published by Linköping University Electronic Press: http://www.ep.liu.se/ecp_home/index.en.aspx?issue=064 © The Author. National Museums in Switzerland Felicity Bodenstein Summary The confederate form of its government and the cantonal structure of the Swiss state largely conditions Switzerland’s museum geography. Cultural affairs are not generally managed by the federal government but are traditionally the jurisdiction of the cantons, and all except a handful of Switzerland’s 949 museums are not national (Federal Department for the Interior, 2005: 3). The birth of Switzerland’s first national museum was long and arduous and great apprehension was repeatedly expressed at the idea of such an institution. For many Swiss, it represented an obvious contradiction to the state’s federal-national principal. In the years between the establishment of the first Helvetic Republic (1798-1803) up until the creation of the Swiss confederate state in 1848 and following, no national museums of any kind were founded. A material reason for this was that the creation of the Federal state was not accompanied by any massive movement of secularization, such as that which had, in France, transferred huge quantities of church possessions and artworks into the hands of the state. In Switzerland, the secularization of ecclesiastical treasures was a gradual process going back to the period of the Reformation and thus predating national concerns.

From Prangins to Versailles (4.03.-10.07.2016) From 4 March to 10 July 2016, the Swiss National Museum – Château de Prangins presents an exhibition devoted to the remarkable career of Louis-Auguste Brun, a painter from the Geneva school best known for his equestrian portraits of Queen Marie-Antoinette. Some one hundred works, together with a film recounting the surprising last years of his life as both art dealer and Vaud patriot, allow visitors to explore the life of an individual who defies easy classification. With scent-based guided tours and a Marie-Antoinette-inspired menu at the Café du Château, it’s an experience for all the senses. A skilled draughtsman and an outstanding painter of portraits, animals and landscapes, the Swiss artist Louis-Auguste Brun (1758-1815) is today principally known for the works he produced at the French court, in particular two equestrian portraits of Marie-Antoinette.
