Les Convergences entre passe et futur dans les collections des arts du spectacle- Connecting Points: Performing Arts Collections Uniting Past and Future: Congres de Munich - Munich Congress

Passe, present et futur sont destines a etre intrinsequement lies dans le traitement des collections des arts du spectacle. Car leur principale mission est bien de preserver le passe, de deployer des activites au present et de mettre en place des strategies pour le futur. Les defis quotidiens auxquels les collections des arts du spectacle font face se trouvent au coeur de ce croisement; ce sont ces preoccupations que les auteurs, venant de tous horizons, cherchent a exposer et a developper dans ce volume d'actes. Ces themes ont ete abordes lors du Congres de la SIBMAS a Munich en 2010, le premier a avoir ete organise conjointement avec le Congres mondial de la FIRT, renforcant ainsi les relations entre le monde de la recherche theatrale et celui des collections des arts du spectacle. Past, Present, Future - these are permanent connecting points in the work of performing arts collections. It is their crucial commitment to preserve the past, to spread out several activities in the present and to develop strategies for the future. The challenges of performing arts collections are in the middle of these crossroads, which is the theme of the SIBMAS Congress papers presented in this book. The various international contributions are concentrated on the main topics of performing arts collections daily tasks. They were presented and discussed at the SIBMAS Congress in Munich 2010, the first conference in cooperation with the IFTR World Congress, strengthening the relationship between theatre research and performing arts collections.
