The role(s) of case study works of art in ongoing modern and contemporary paint research at Tate

Learn about the role of case studies in modern and contemporary paint research

11am – 1pm BST 25 April 2025 + Add to calendar

Works of art have been used as the focus for modern paint and cleaning science research for over two decades at Tate, resulting in the development of a collaborative methodology and innovative treatments anchored by supporting heritage science and a risk-based approach. In this session, Bronwyn will discuss how case study works of art and conservation treatments have been incorporated into, as well as both guide and challenge ongoing collaborative research into the preservation of modern painted works of art at Tate, using several key works from Tate's modern and contemporary art collection dating from the 1950s and 1960s.
