중요무형문화재의 기록과 기록물의 활용: 무용분야를 중심으로

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop various effective recording methodologies for intangible cultural heritage. In response, three subjects will be examined as follow: First, the concept of Important Intangible Cultural Heritage and its value; Second, the appropriate legal and administrative system and recording methodology for Important Intangible Cultural Heritage; Third, the effective utilization of intangible cultural heritage recording materials. The “Intangible Cultural Heritage” means intangible cultural products of great historical, artistic or academic value, such as drama, music, dance and craftsmanship. Normally intangible cultural heritage is classified into two categories: craft skills and arts. In this context, Intangible cultural heritage recording refers to documentation the actual performance process of practitioners in video record or text forms as a measure to preserve the prototype of craft skills and arts. The basic principle of intangible cultural heritage recording should be to preserve them as their original form. However, the concept of intangible cultural heritage has broadened its domains, in response to adopting UNESCO’s new concept that also acknowledges modification on intangible cultural heritage. Therefore, the recording project should promote new recording methodology with a broaden concept, and study constantly to transmit intangible cultural heritage to the future generation. For the utilization of recording materials, we should pay more attention on building archive structure and collecting data which have relied on the practitioners’ longtime experiences.
