한국 춤문화유산과 공연예술자료관의 미래상

Abstract

International interest in cultural assets recently tends to focus on intangible culture. In this light, attention needs to be drawn to the inheritance of Korean dance, which is a kind of intangible culture. Korean dances should be valued largely from the perspective of an intangible dance cultural asset and a modern dance cultural asset. The dance cultural assets must be recorded and preserved, since dances will become extinct some day. It calls for the state to establish a performance artistic archives where dance cultural assets can be arranged and preserved in a systematic manner. In addition, a comprehensive system for managing performance artistic materials should be set up on the national level so that dance cultural assets may be identified, collected, and preserved on a systematical and permanent basis.
