Conserving Histories of Art
Each of the seminars in Conserving Histories of Art is a conversation about an object or objects: about how and why we care for them, and about the ways in which care changes the stories they tell. The series brings artists, scholars, conservators, and curators into conversation in an effort to move beyond the traditional division between those who study what objects mean and those who study how they age. It attempts to transcend this division in the hope of encouraging a recognition of how intelligence is embedded in objects and their conservation.
