Art Restoration in the Museum

Art restoration is considered as one of the most important fields in the life of an art museum and this project introduces the main questions and ethical issues of art restoration.

“Art Restoration in the Museum” is a project that explores the role of restoration in the art museum, the ethical considerations faced by graphic, painting and sculpture restorers, the specifics of storing and preserving works created in experimental techniques, as well as other issues related to art restoration.

The topic covered in each video episode is also linked to specific works in the permanent exposition of the main building of the Latvian National Museum of Art, providing additional information about them.

The project was created with the support of the law firm “Ellex Kļaviņš”.
