Abstract
In exploring the future for heritage practice, this paper reviews the recent history of heritage in Australia and debates around the relationship, or lack of re lationship, between heritage theory and practice. The Future for Heritage Practice themed volume captures the spirit of the 2013 Australia ICOMOS Conference program and the wide-ranging discussion and debate generated by its insistent questioning of all that we do now, and might do in the future. Themes emerging from this discussion include the generative potential of practice, and the need to reconnect heritage theory and practice within a broader cultural frame, with a stronger focus on imagination, innovation and creativity.
