From September 12th-16th, I attended the IIC 2016 Los Angeles Congress ‘Saving the Now – Crossing Boundaries to Conserve Contemporary Works’ thanks to the Bromelle Memorial Fund Grant for student members. It was a great opportunity to share and debate our experiences and concerns in the conservation of contemporary artworks, and also for networking, networking, networking. If you were unable to attend and/or are interested in learning about the papers presented you can check the Congress' Blog. https://www.iiconservation.org/congress/2016losangeles/blog
