This session is a practical presentation, demonstration and discussion in how to approach preparing art objects for travel and storage – attendees are highly encouraged to bring their own artefacts as examples for the group to discuss and consider what the objects challenges and needs might be.
The extensive experience of Artlab’s Senior Objects Conservator, Justin Gare will give insight into the innovative techniques used in the preservation of the State’s collections as well as family treasures. Artlab Australia is a recognised leader in the conservation of cultural collections with a national and international reputation since 1985. Their highly skilled conservators care for cultural heritage, working across five specialised laboratories, undertaking stabilisation, repair and restoration of a huge variety of artefacts. These range from major artworks and ethnographic and historic artefacts, to archival documents and records, large technology items and outdoor monuments.
Please keep in mind when selecting an artefact any potential pest risk associated with the preservation of historic materials. If you are unsure contact Guildhouse direct and we can support you in selecting. For this consideration, all attending guests please note no food or beverages can be brought on site.
