International Panorama Council

International Panorama Council

The International Panorama Council [Fact sheet International Panorama Council [http://www.innsbruck-panorama.eu/Doc/H1.pdf] ] is a global network involving museum directors, managers, artists, restorers and historians who deal with the historical or the contemporary art and media forms of the Panorama. As an NGO it comprises about 230 members from all over the world who are either representatives of museums and research institutes or private researchers and enthusiasts.The organisation was founded in 1992 as the 'European Panorama Conference' in Szeged/Hungary and renamed in 1998 at Altoetting/Germany the 'International Panorama Conference'. Since 2003 the organisation is called International Panorama Council.

Main goals

The main goals of IPC are to ensure the conservation of surviving historical panoramas and cycloramas, to extend and to distribute the knowledge of the panorama phenomenon and to develop new initiatives for the panorama in a contemporary context.The International Panorama Council actively supports the preservation of historical panoramas and cycloramas. In 2007 and 2008 it started a lobbying campaign to save the endangered panorama painting and building [campaign in Innsbruck/Austria: media articles in "Kronenzeitung" on March 27, 2008, p. 19 and weekly magazine "Profil" on September 8, 2008, p. 117] in Innsbruck, Austria.The IPC is also currently campaigning to protect the endangered Panorama Mesdag [campaign to preserve the endangered [Panorama Mesdag, call for action by Europa Nostra on the initiative of IPC [http://www.museum-aktuell.de/index.php?site=news&page=9] ] [Website of Panorama Mesdag with information on the campaign [http://www.panorama-mesdag.nl] ] .A further goal of the IPC is to have the important historical panoramas listed as UNESCO World Heritage sites. A first step has been taken in July 2008 when the Panorama Waterloo was added to the Belgium's tentative proposal for UNESCO's list [Belgian tentative list on website of UNESCO [http://whc.unesco.org/en/tentativelists/state=be] ] .
