La risposta, in questi due decenni, è sempre stata generosa e qualificatissima, consentendo quel confronto di principi, di metodi e di tecniche che costituisce il solo modo di progredire scientificamente. Questa occasione, oltre all’utile confronto, ha ora una valenza in più: quella di aver creato le premesse per sistematizzare e implementare un database dei progetti di restauro delle strutture lignee. Insomma, una “casa comune” ove depositare esperienze e attingere informazioni. Qualcosa che è stato invocato fin dal 1931, quando una prima riunione internazionale dei Tecnici del Restauro produsse la “Carta del Restauro di Atene”, postulando lo scambio sistematico delle informazioni in una specie di “archivio comune”. Oggi, la tecnologia multimediale consente di realizzare facilmente contenitori virtuali, così che l’impegno alla reciproca circolazione della “progettualità” (intesa nel senso più largo) diventa più realistico. Così, la comunità scientifica è sempre meno un concetto astratto e sempre più qualcosa che ci fa sentire tutti più vicini. Le prossime generazioni di studiosi troveranno più aggregazione, più strumenti, più rapide capacità di confronto e di metodiche collaudate; e ne disporranno in tempi brevi, in “tempo reale”, come ormai si dice con una locuzione consueta. Se così sarà, significherà che queste nostre sperimentazioni, questi incontri, queste premesse, erano ben riposti. Francesco Gurrieri Restauratore, Università di Firenze Remarks on the Occasion of the Seminar on Rescuing the Hidden European Wooden Church Heritage It is a great pleasure for me to be here today to representing ICCROM, and in particular, my Director General, Mr. Mounir Bouchenaki. I would first like to acknowledge our hosts for this meeting, the Fondazione Romualdo del Bianco and the Collegio degli Ingegneri della Toscana, and also all of the partners that have been working on this very interesting initiative. The theme of this project, the Rescuing the Hidden European Wooden Church Heritage, brought several ideas to my mind. The first “Wooden Church Heritage” speaks to the materiality of these buildings. Wood is the main material which makes up the form and structure. The conservation of this material is of utmost importance, and although progress has been made over the years in understanding the physical conservation problems of wood, we still have more work to do. The second word of interest in the title was “hidden”. What was meant by that word? Of course, it cannot be taken literally. Church buildings cannot literally be hidden from view. This means that this heritage must be “hidden in plain sight”. But, hidden to whom? Maybe they are hidden to those of us in the conservation community who are concerned with more “important monuments”; or maybe to national officials who have other priorities; or to their own local communities. And yet, since most of these churches are still in use, they must still play some role within the living traditions of the communities in which they are found. The issue of living religious heritage has been of growing interest at ICCROM. In October 2003, ICCROM held a Forum on this topic, and a number of issues were highlighted including: 1. the need to reconcile conservation with changing liturgical and functional needs; 2. the fact that interest in religion will fluctuate over time making religious heritage, sometime more and sometimes less central to the daily lives of people; 3. the growing secular pressures on many religious places, particularly from tourism; 4. the occasional conflict between continuity of traditions and “scientific” conservation. By way of conclusion, the Forum found that living religious heritage, both tangible and intangible, is important in expressing and sustaining the faiths which give spiritual identity, meaning, and purpose to human life. The Forum also concluded that the religious communities for which the heritage has importance but should be primarily responsible for continued maintenance and conservation, in consultation with conservation professionals. I’m pleased that the work carried out within the project Rescuing the Hidden European Wooden Church Heritage is helping us to understand a part of the living religious heritage of Europe. The project is building our awareness of this important heritage and helping to conserve it for the future. Joseph King ICCROM, Unit Director, Sites Unit VII Sono molto felice di portarvi i saluti di benvenuto della sezione italiana dell’ICOMOS che ho ora l’onore di presiedere. Mi sono formato, assieme a molti amici e colleghi presenti in questa sala come i professori Guerrieri e Tampone, alla scuola di Piero Sanpaolesi che ha dedicato tutta la sua intensa vita di studioso e di operatore alla conservazione dell’eredità materiale del nostro patrimonio architettonico. Nel primo pomeriggio farò la mia comunicazione “dal restauro alla conservazione” per sottolineare che i tempi sono maturi per il definitivo passaggio, che io penso epocale e spero irreversibile, alla cultura della permanenza. Come voi ben sapete dopo la prima esposizione internazionale sul restauro
