    Conference, symposium - History

    Toute une histoire de bartassaille. Histoire et mémoire d'un patrimoine des entreprises et des objets arts ménagers

    Presse purée, cocotte-minute, marmite, SEB, Birambeau, Mastrad, Vedette... ces objets et ses marques emprunts de mémoire marquent nos vies et portent nos souvenirs. Fort de ce constat nous vous proposons de croiser nos regards sur ses ustensiles de cuisine moins futilitaires que nécessaires (pratiques, utiles et identitaires)... Écrivains, designers, chefs d'entreprise, historiens, sociologues, conservateurs du patrimoine pensent et repensent ces objets, cette « bartassaille » comme on le dit à Saint-Etienne. Cinq axes seront développés dans un soucis de comprendre comment naît un ustensile et pourquoi il entre parfois dans notre patrimoine, et comment histoire, mémoire et innovation sont liées pour devenir de vrais moteur de la création.
