In the capital of RS, there are 25 listed items by IPHAE (Institute of Historical and Artistic Heritage of the State), while UFRGS alone has 24 legally protected properties. These buildings are classified as historical or cultural heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the state, there are 156 listed properties by IPHAE, including buildings, squares, bridges, railways, and waterway stations. The cultural preservation of properties is an administrative act made by the public authority that aims to protect the original characteristics of properties and monuments of historical, cultural, environmental, and\/or architectural value, as well as of affective significance for the population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the great challenges in relation to historical heritage is the preservation, and UFRGS holds a project which intends to be of assistance in this aspect. It is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/ldsm\/\">LDSM<\/a> (Design and Material Selection Laboratory), which carries out the scanning of these properties, among several other activities. F\u00e1bio Silva, the engineer responsible for the laboratory, explains that this type of scanning can be used in many ways for historical preservation. Both the organization of the documentation related to the property \u2013that is necessary for issuing the preservation administrative act, for the analysis of the building&#8217;s materials and for the maintenance of the site history for future generations \u2013 and the planning of future restoration works are among the prospective applications of scanning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Scanning can even be used to rebuild the properties, says Ant\u00f4nio Saras\u00e1, from Saras\u00e1 Studio, the company responsible for the restoration of Ch\u00e2teau D\u2019Eau, monument which lies in the city of Cachoeira do Sul. Ant\u00f4nio mentions the example of Italy, where the process is widespread due to constant earthquakes and the consequent loss of buildings. In the city of Esteio\/RS, historical buildings like the Claretiano Seminary were damaged by a fire and had to be reconstructed. Scanning the monument would have significantly facilitated the endeavor. F\u00e1bio reiterates that a historical heritage cannot be reconstructed without a solid documented base which may tell the story of the place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Scanning requires resources and time<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two UFRGS\u2019 buildings have already gone through the scanning process: the Institute of Chemistry\u2019s fa\u00e7ade, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/ldsm\/3d\/predios-ufrgs\/quimica-vasos\">vases in detail<\/a>, and its statues, as well as details of the old building of the Faculty of Medicine, on the<strong> <\/strong>corner of Sarmento Leite and Engenheiro Luiz Englert streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before UFRGS can see the other 22 historical buildings catalogued, two requirements need to be met: resources and time. F\u00e1bio explains that there is more than one way to scan a monument and that the laboratory has scanners with three different technologies. In all of them, it is necessary to capture images of the building, what takes, on average, one day, but this also requires scaffolds and space. To scan <em>O La\u00e7ador<\/em>, the sculpture made by Ant\u00f4nio Caringi, the assistance of the municipality authorities, which provided a truck to raise the equipment up to the height of the statue, was necessary. For the scanning of the Medicine building\u2019s details, the researchers visited the place at night, \u201cto avoid sunlight from interfering with the capture of the monument\u2019s colors\u201d, comments F\u00e1bio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the speedy one-day image making, information processing takes more time and requires more resources. After the material has already been collected, it is necessary to \u201ctreat the data\u201d, by building a point cloud, a three-dimensional coordinating system that will organize and examine them. F\u00e1bio explains that this work can take months and requires high-performance computers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another application is the digital exposition of the properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cIt is possible to make a virtual tour, showing the facade, thus more people will know the place.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<cite>F\u00e1bio Silva<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">LDSM was also responsible for cataloging and making available, for example, the acquis of UFRGS\u2019 Natural Science Museum, located in the city of Imb\u00e9, and a virtual tour in the main room of the Museum. \u201cIn that place there is the skeleton of the humpback whale, which was scanned,\u201d Fabio says.

The recognition of properties of traditional cultural significance requires that an administrator \u2013 public or private \u2013 gathers information about the property and submits it to the responsible authority. \u201cIf a property is important to the city, it will be registered at the municipal level. If it is important to Rio Grande do Sul, then the property will be registered at the state level. And, if it becomes national, a federal level will be reached,\u201d explains Renata Manara Tonioli, head of the historical heritage sector at UFRGS, administrative area of the University in charge of the restoration and maintenance of historical buildings. In Porto Alegre, the division in charge of historical heritage is the Municipal Secretary of Culture. In Rio Grande do Sul, it is managed by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.iphae.rs.gov.br\/\">IPHAE<\/a> and in rest of Brazil, by <a href=\"http:\/\/portal.iphan.gov.br\/\">IPHAN<\/a> (Institute of National Historical and Artistic Heritage).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The University is a good example of heritage protected in different levels of competence. At the national level, there is the Astronomical Observatory. Among those protected at the state level, there is the Engineering School, which, according to Renata, \u201cbelongs to the history about the development of the State of Rio Grande do Sul\u201d. However, the University buildings are not protected by an administrative act, but by the&nbsp; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.al.rs.gov.br\/filerepository\/repLegis\/arquivos\/11.525.pdf\">State Law <\/a>No 11.525, passed in 2000, which \u201cdesignates the historic buildings belonging to the Federal University of&nbsp; Rio Grande do Sul as part of the State&#8217;s cultural heritage.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Brazil, the protection of historic buildings began in 1937, during the Get\u00falio Vargas government, through the Decree-Law No.25, passed on November 30th of that year. In Rio Grande do Sul, historic heritage preservation of properties started in 1980, when IPHAE was founded. Lu\u00edsa explains that defining heritage is always a complex process, since, at different times, different assets are considered heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cThe heritage definition is related to values, and each period, each generation, decides what heritage is.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<cite><em>Lu\u00edsa Gertrudis Dur\u00e1n Rocca<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The restorer Anice Jaroczinski works on the restoration of the wall paintings from Public Library of Porto Alegre, which has been recently reopened.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-8524.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-8524.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-57918\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-8524.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-8524-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-8524-156x117.jpg 156w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-8524-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-8524-465x349.jpg 465w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-8524-667x500.jpg 667w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">On the cover image, the library reading room (Photos by: Fl\u00e1vio Dutra\/ JU Archive \u2013 October 4th. 2022)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The period with the highest number of protected properties was in the 1980s, when the foundation of IPHAE took place.

But in the 2010s, the protection of properties was resumed and, in 2013, 23 buildings became protected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the state, old residential buildings constitute the highest number of protected properties, around 30% of properties were registered for the most part in the 1980s \u2013 places where politicians \u2013 like Borges de Medeiros, Get\u00falio Vargas, and J\u00falio de Castilhos \u2013 or writers \u2013 like Sim\u00f5es Lopes Neto \u2013 lived; and even Italian, German, and Portuguese immigrants\u2019 first houses in the state, like the Casa dos Veronese in Flores da Cunha, or Sobrado dos Azulejos, located in the city of Rio Grande.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/The-five-more-recurrent-property-types-taken-as-cultural-heritage-by-IPHAE-in-the-State.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-76010\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/The-five-more-recurrent-property-types-taken-as-cultural-heritage-by-IPHAE-in-the-State.png 1000w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/The-five-more-recurrent-property-types-taken-as-cultural-heritage-by-IPHAE-in-the-State-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/The-five-more-recurrent-property-types-taken-as-cultural-heritage-by-IPHAE-in-the-State-175x88.png 175w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/The-five-more-recurrent-property-types-taken-as-cultural-heritage-by-IPHAE-in-the-State-768x384.png 768w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/The-five-more-recurrent-property-types-taken-as-cultural-heritage-by-IPHAE-in-the-State-465x233.png 465w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/The-five-more-recurrent-property-types-taken-as-cultural-heritage-by-IPHAE-in-the-State-695x348.png 695w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The five more recurrent property-types taken as cultural heritage by IPHAE in the State<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ant\u00f4nio Saras\u00e1 points out that different properties must be preserved, even if their architecture may seem simpler.

These are the cases of the State Public Library, of the S\u00e3o Pedro Theater and of the Capit\u00f3lio Cinematheque. Most buildings, however, got repurposed from their original construction function: 43 turned into cultural centers, such as museums, libraries, and culture houses. Divisions of the public administration occupy 18 buildings, including 10 municipal offices, three city halls and the headquarters of the state government, the <em>Piratini<\/em> Palace. The opening of these places to the population has complied with what the interviewees so often mentioned: proper care of historic properties is only achieved when the community knows and uses them.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Main-current-applications-of-the-States-cultural-properties.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-76011\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Main-current-applications-of-the-States-cultural-properties.png 1000w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Main-current-applications-of-the-States-cultural-properties-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Main-current-applications-of-the-States-cultural-properties-175x88.png 175w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Main-current-applications-of-the-States-cultural-properties-768x384.png 768w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Main-current-applications-of-the-States-cultural-properties-465x233.png 465w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Main-current-applications-of-the-States-cultural-properties-695x348.png 695w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Main current applications of the State&#8217;s cultural properties<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Routine care and memorial preservation<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Renata explains that taking care of a cultural and public property is not simple. \u201cAny sort of intervention in a historical building at UFRGS must be approved by the historical heritage sector.\u201d From paintings to the stipulated use for a room, it is necessary to carry out a study, to guarantee the preservation of property originality. Renata also says that the University is a cultural property belonging to the whole society, so it needs to be opened to the public. This is the case of UFRGS\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/difusaocultural\/centrocultural\/\">Cultural<\/a> Center whose restoration work was concluded in 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Routine, care, hiring of services and labor are matters that affect the conservation of a building, says Maria Clara Bassin, head architect for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.palaciopiratini.rs.gov.br\/inicial\">Piratini<\/a> Palace. She reports that, to take care of a building, it is necessary a multidisciplinary team. Lu\u00edsa agrees with Bassin and adds having historians, architects, engineers and restorers working together is priceless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maria Clara also explains that there is a prime difference between conservation and restoration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cConservation is meant to avoid restoration, because every restoration is a loss.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<cite>Maria Clara Bassin<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ant\u00f4nio adds, stating that \u201crestoration should always be an exceptionality, but in Brazil it is considered a regular occurrence\u201d. The restorer says that the most important aspects are prevention and conservation. Lu\u00edsa points out that those who take care of the heritage \u201cconsequently help putting out fires\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to the building maintenance and care, cultural properties also have another very important factor: memory maintenance. \u201cPiratini Palace keeps the history of Rio Grande do Sul,\u201d says Maria Clara, just as UFRGS keeps with it the history of education development both in Rio Grande do Sul and in Brazil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the UFRGS\u2019 buildings also indicate the memories of the people who studied in or worked for the University. The restorations of the University buildings are funded by sponsorship regulated by the Culture Incentive Law. Most donations come from natural persons, out of whom many are alumni. \u201cFor example, take the case of the S\u00e3o Pedro chapel, at the Experimental Agronomic Station: all donations were given by natural persons, and many of them had their own wedding ceremonies held at the chapel,\u201d says Lu\u00edsa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both collective and individual memories aid cultural heritage preservation. A cultural asset or property does not become cultural heritage just because of its architecture, but because of its symbology, because of what it means to the community. Politicians\u2019 former houses recall the history of those public figures. Buildings that have immigration characteristics tell the miscegenation story of Rio Grande do Sul. Buildings tell stories and hold memories of past times and, more importantly, tell stories about the people who lived at those times. \u201cHistorical heritage is a support for collective memory,\u201d sums up Lu\u00edsa.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-7826.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-7826.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-57916\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-7826.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-7826-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-7826-175x117.jpg 175w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-7826-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-7826-465x309.jpg 465w, https:\/\/www.ufrgs.br\/jornal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Flavio-Dutra-7826-695x462.jpg 695w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Facade of S\u00e3o Pedro Theatre, in the Historical Center of Porto Alegre (Photo by: Fl\u00e1vio Dutra\/ JU Archive \u2013 July 8th 2013)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-accent-background-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">Translated into English by\u00a0<strong>Daniel Senna Irgang<\/strong>, undergraduate student enrolled in the course \u201cSupervised Translation Training I (English)\u201d of the Undergraduate Program in Language and Literature, under the supervision and translation revision of Professor Elizamari R.
