The picturesque aesthetic in the work of Sir John Soane, architect and collector, resonates in the major work of his very personal practice – the development of his house museum, now the Soane Museum in Lincoln’s Inn Fields in London. Soane was actively involved with the debates, practices and proponents of picturesque and classical practices in architecture and landscape and his lectures reveal these influences in the making of The Soane, which was built to contain and present diverse collections of classical and contemporary art and architecture alongside scavenged curiosities. The Soane Museum has been described as a picturesque landscape, where a pictorial style, together with a carefully defined itinerary, has resulted in the ‘apotheosis of the Picturesque interior’. Soane also experimented with making mock ruinscapes within gardens, which led him to construct faux architectures alluding to archaeological practices based upon the ruin and the fragment. These ideas framed the making of interior landscapes expressed through spatial juxtapositions of room and corridor furnished with the collected object that characterise The Soane Museum. This paper is a personal journey through the Museum which describes and then reviews aspects of Soane’s work in the context of contemporary theories on ‘new’ museology. It describes the underpinning picturesque practices that Soane employed to exceed the boundaries between interior and exterior landscapes and the collection. It then applies particular picturesque principles drawn from visiting The Soane to a speculative project for a house/landscape museum for the Oratunga historic property in outback South Australia, where the often, normalising effects of conservation practices are reviewed using minimal architectural intervention through a celebration of ruinous states.

This paper is an attempt to integrate heritage and museum studies through exploring the complex relationship between the materiality of architecture and social memories with a house museum of return migration in Guangdong, PRC as a case study. It unveils that the ongoing process of memory is intrinsically intertwined with spatial and temporal dimensions of the physical dwelling and built environment and the wider social-historical context and power relations shaping them. I argue that it is the house as ‘object of exhibit’ just as much as the exhibits inside the house that materialises the turbulent and traumatic migratory experience of Returned Overseas Chinese, embodies their memories and exposes the contested nature of museumification. By looking at the socially and geographically marginalised dwelling of return migrants, the house draws people’s attention to the often neglected importance of conceptual periphery in re-theorising what is often assumed to be the core of heritage value. It points to the necessity to integrate displaced, diasporic, transnational subjects to heritage and museum studies that have been traditionally framed within national and territorial boundaries.

Historic house museums form a significant component of the built heritage and social history of a country. They vary from the elaborate mansions of the wealthy to modest dwellings of the working class. Regardless of the original owner's status in society these house museums are vital to an understanding of architecture, culture and society from a bygone era. The Newstead House, the oldest surviving residence, in Brisbane, is the first house to be designated a 'Historic House Museum' in Queensland. It is a representative example of a house that demonstrates the British colonial heritage of 19th century Australia. Originally a modest cottage, on 34 acres of land, the Newstead house was built by a Scottish migrant. The ownership of the house and land changed many times, during the period from 1847 to 1939. During this period a series of prominent residents of Brisbane either owned or rented this residence. They included, an officer of the Royal Navy, politicians, magistrates, merchant ship owners, and a Consul General of the United States of America. As a result, the house went through a series of renovations and extensions to accommodate the needs of its owners and their position in society. This paper aims to investigate the significance of historic museum houses in educating the community on aspects of social history, culture and architecture of 19th century Australia. It will focus on the heritage listed Newstead House as a case study to demonstrate the significance of the house as an artefact and an educational tool.

Resumen: El objeto de este trabajo es vincular la actividad de los museos y su patrimonio histórico militar en la conformación de identidades, como parte de un proyecto que se inició hacia fines del siglo XIX. Abordaremos la cuestión desde una visión amplia, incluyendo todos aquellos bienes que por su historia, y la función que ocupan en esa construcción identitaria, guardan estrecha relación con la historia militar. Para tal fin, se tomarán cuatro casos: el Museo Histórico Nacional, el Buque Museo Corbeta Uruguay, la Casa Museo Luis Piedra Buena y la Casa Amarilla (sede del Departamento de Estudios Históricos Navales y del Instituto Nacional Browniano) Todos ellos bienes patrimoniales e instituciones que surgen o se re-significan con el objeto de facilitar a la comunidad nacional e internacional el acceso al conocimiento de la historia del país.

The Joseph Priestley House Museum at Northumberland, Pennsylvania became interested in Priestley's pioneering timelines as a complement to his better known work in chemistry, electricity, biblical scholarship and political radicalism. Boyd Davis wrote this short article for the newsletter published by the Friends of the museum. The article concentrates on the connections between Priestley, his French contemporary Barbeu-Dubourg and Benjamin Franklin at the time of the struggle for American Independence, and Priestley's two key chronographic innovations: the use of drawn or printed lines to represent the duration of lives, and the associated use of dots to show when the dates of such lives are in doubt or dispute. Keywords: timeline, chronographics

Muchas veces en la investigación en el campo del arte los términos son ambiguos si no se los precisa. Retomamos la distinción entre cuestiones ontológicas (tipos de objetos de investigación), epistemológicas (conocimientos producidos) y metodológicas propiamente dichas (discusiones en torno de los vínculos con las Ciencias Sociales). A su vez distinguimos la investigación en el campo del arte de la investigación artística (IENA) propiamente dicha, reservando para esta última los sentidos de un tipo de indagación estética creativa en la incorporación de nuevos lenguajes y modalidades de obras. El trabajo busca ser una excusa para que, presentando una exploración en curso dentro de la casa/museo El fogón de los arrieros, podamos actualizar brevemente un debate sobre dos concepciones vinculadas: la IENA y la investigación sobre objetos artísticos. Además de arriesgar una propuesta de abordaje con matriz de datos para estratificar los niveles de análisis, dejando interrogantes para sucesivos planteos que contengan los rasgos propios de la pesquisa teórica y práctica sobre artes.

El tema objeto de esta Tesis, el Fragmento y la Abstracción, es una propuesta de análisis sobre el diálogo entre el fragmento como object trouvé y la abstracción, como un modo de proceder por parte del autor en el proyecto de arquitectura. En un principio, tal vez la creación artística nació como un intento por comprender la complejidad del mundo en que el ser humano vivía. Y se dedica a establecer un diálogo con el fragmento, a veces buscando su significado como parte de una historia desconocida, otras como parte de su propia historia pero también como referencia a una etapa mítica, convirtiéndose en símbolo de un paraíso perdido. El fragmento ha dado lugar al diálogo entre obra y autor tanto en música como en literatura o pintura. Esta tesis intenta analizar dicho diálogo en la arquitectura. Esta investigación comienza interrogándose sobre el sentido del fragmento y la abstracción como el modo de pensamiento leve, en definición de Italo Calvino, que nos permite conectar las ideas más alejadas. Para ello, se propusieron cinco modelos para explorar dicha relación. Los edificios elegidos fueron 1.- Villa Adriana 2.- Palacio de Carlos V en la Alhambra 3.- La casa- museo de Sir John Soane 4.- El Carmen de Rodríguez-Acosta 5.- Castelvecchio Dos de ellos residencies imperiales (1 y 2) Dos fortalezas (2 y5) Dos casas-estudio (3 y 4) Las cinco tienen relación con jardines De sus autores no todos son conocidos Tres de ellos se dedicaron a la docencia en arquitectura. Los cinco tienen carácter museográfico. P.D. Durante la investigación, para relacionar a unos y otros, se introdujo a Gian Battista Piranesi como importante nexo de unión entre antigüedad y modernidad. ABSTRACT The subject of this Thesis “Fragment and Abstraction, is a purpose of analysis about the dialogue between fragment as object trouvé and abstraction, as a way to do by the author in the architectural project. At first, we suppose historically that artistic creation is born as a way to understand the complexity of the world where the human beings lives. They tried to stablish a dialogue with the fragment, looking for its meaning, sometimes as the part of an unknown story, sometimes as part of their own history, but sometimes as reference of mythic times, becoming a symbol of a lost paradise. In arts, fragment is at beginning of many dialogues between craft and the author, as we know in music, literature or painting. This thesis try to analyze this dialogue in architecture. This investigation began asking for the meaning of fragment as something what was broken out from something we do not know, and abstraction as an immaterial way of thinking which let us connecting the most far ideas. Therefore, five architectural model were proposed, in order to explain that relationship. The chosen buildings were: 1- Villa Adriana 2- Charles V Imperator’s Palace at la Alhambra 3- Sir John Soane House -Museum 4- Rodríguez –Acostas’s Carmen 5- Castelvecchio by Carlo Scarpa There are: Two Imperial palaces (the 1st and 2nd), Two fortresses (the 2nd and 5th) Two House-Artist Studio (the 3rd and 4th) Five types of relationship with gardens. The authors, from them, we do not know some of them Three of the architects used to teach architecture All of them went to Rome Now the five buildings have become museum institution.During the investigation, in order to explain the relationship between them, I introduced Giambattista Piranesi as an important nexus to understand the transition from the antiquity to the modernity.
