Cleaning of Acrylic Painted Surfaces Workshop 2013: Lunder Conservation Center, Washington DC
The Getty Conservation Institute (GCI) and Lunder Conservation Center are pleased to announce the 2013 Cleaning of Acrylic Painted Surfaces (CAPS) workshop to be held at the Lunder Conservation Center in Washington DC, 30 April–3 May 2013.
The 2013 workshop aims to directly engage conservators in the current research into identifying a broader range of cleaning systems and methodologies for acrylic painted surfaces. Its objectives are to:
- Communicate the results of recent scientific research and new developments in practice
- Stimulate a dialogue between researchers and conservators about the application of new research and technical insights to the conservation of acrylic painted surfaces
- Develop critical thinking skills that will help participants design project-specific cleaning systems in their own labs
- Identify areas where further research is needed
