Lo “patrimoniable”: el patrimonio cultural de lo cotidiano

Abstract

This work stems from a reflection around the conceptual relationship established between heritage education, cultural heritage, popular and contemporary ancestral habitat and artistic practices merging from a researchcreation project “Experiential artistic practices for the recognition of ‘the heritageable’ in Colombia: popular habitat and contemporary ancestral habitat in pilot places (Municipality of Choachí, neihborhoods Pardo Rubio, Minuto de Dios, Las Cruces, El Pañuelito, the locality of Rafael Uribe Uribe). The arguments are formulated from case studies, articulated in the “Heritageable Network”: coformed by observatory places that belong to urban and rural contexts of Bogotá and its edges. The need to confer and defend the significance of places in the ordinary or ancestral world based on aesthetic practices is argued in this chapter. “The heritageable” - recognized by the community - is arbitrated and located in space and time, past, present and future, restoring common sense and social value to territorialization processes.
