The International Panorama Council (IPC) is a nongovernmental, not-for-profit organization, subject to Swiss law.
[1] It is a global network involving museum directors, managers, artists, restorers and historians who deal with the historical or the contemporary art and media forms of the panorama.
IPC is active in the fields of restoration, research, financing, exhibiting and marketing of panoramas and related art forms from the heritage era to its contemporary and future manifestations.
The conferences are planned to provide a meaningful, professional exchange of ideas with lunches and dinners included, and a joint post-conference excursion to a panorama related site.
Presentations in the conference proceedings range from illustrated essays on topographical mapping to restoration and conservation techniques.
