ICOM Costume Committee Annual Meeting
Ethnographic Museum
Belgrade, Serbia
September 25th-30th 2011.
Theme: In Between - European Fashion Between East and West
Dear ICOM members,
Dear colleagues and friends,
We invite you to join us for our 2011 ICOM - (International Council of Museums) Costume Committee - Annual Meeting, hosted by Ethnographic Museum in Belgrade, Serbia, from September 25th-30th 2011.
The ICOM Costume Committee Board, in close collaboration with colleagues in Belgrade, is planning five exciting and unusual days of papers, exhibitions, poster presentations, workshops and discussions on how centuries of cultural exchange between East and West have influenced the culture of dress. The general theme is "In Between - European Fashion Between East and West ".
During this inspiring meeting we intend to stress how this region and especially Serbia have influenced the craft, trade, fashion, social and private connections and relations that enable and support the cultural exchange of dress even today. Our special goal is to study and determine how our museums and museum collections are recognizing and responding to this specific cultural exchange.
More than 30 exhibitions are the result of Serbian museums' hard work in anticipation of the Costume Committee's first visit to Serbia. The Serbian Ministry of Culture, Media and Information Society of Serbia has in recognition designated September 2011 as the Month of Dress in Serbia.
Also, we are planning a Costume Student Saturday, on September 24th 2011. This event is a full day of innovative lectures and mentoring between college and university students and experienced members of the Costume Committee.
The Program of the Conference is available at the websites www.etnografskimuzej.rs and www.costumecommittee.org.
We encourage each of you to forward this announcement to any colleagues who might be interested in joining us in Belgrade this year.
Looking forward to meeting you in Belgrade!
Ethnographic Museum from September 25th-30th 2011.
