Conservation treatment was undertaken on a painted photographic portrait of the Reverend William Henry Browne (1800–1877), c. 1860s. Browne was the Rector of St John's Church and Archdeacon of Launceston, and a prominent figure in the colonial days of northern Van Diemen's Land. The portrait was painted with watercolour, pastel and gouache over a salted paper photographic print, lined onto a fine cotton fabric and mounted on a strainer. It had suffered severe damage resulting in a large loss of both the paper and fabric supports comprising a large section of the sitter's head. The conservation treatment involved unstretching, removal of the fabric lining, a blotter ‘wash’, lining onto a new cotton cloth similar to the original and stretching the work back onto its original strainer. The large loss was fully reconstructed with imitative reintegration techniques, using a small photograph of the sitter found in a 1914 pamphlet as a reference. This treatment involved combining the skills of both paper and paintings conservators, as the object is a technical combination of both a photograph and a work of art on paper, and is presented as a painting, i.e. lined with cloth, mounted on a wooden strainer and likely framed. After treatment the quality of the work was revealed, which instigated further work into a plausible attribution.","PeriodicalId":7847,"journal":{"name":"AICCM Bulletin","volume":"37 1","pages":"87 - 95"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10344233.2016.1249203","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59923679","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Analysis of the pH and surface chloride readings showed that increased acidity contributed to the deterioration of the silk fibres, which could be directly related to the levels of retained sweat indicated by the measured chloride ion activity. Migration of acidity from the external silk fabric into the oiled cardboard internal stiffeners necessitated the insertion of replica pieces into the subsequently disassembled mitre. Prior to this work, the corroded gilded silver alloy decorative elements on the disassembled mitre were conserved in situ through reductive consolidation in a 0.1 wt.% sodium dithionite solution at neutral pH. Considerable couching was conducted to stabilise the metalwork and the damaged silk panels on both faces of the mitre, owing to extensive wear from repeated and extended use. Extensive biological degradation of the original silk lining had rendered the original materials with insufficient structural strength to undergo conservation treatment, ultimately requiring replacement with a matching modern silk. All original materials were kept as part of the research collection held by the New Norcia community to allow for future possible DNA analyses.","PeriodicalId":7847,"journal":{"name":"AICCM Bulletin","volume":"37 1","pages":"106 - 96"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10344233.2016.1251682","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59923908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conservators at Artlab Australia have worked collaboratively with an Occupational Health Physiotherapist/Ergonomist, over the past 10 years and have systematically considered a range of injury risk factors, including movements and postures, load, work organisation, working environment and personal factors. These factors were then evaluated according to a risk-rating matrix that is embedded in the risk assessment process. Using this matrix, the risk rating for musculoskeletal disorders of the neck, upper back, shoulders, elbows and wrists was identified as high. Various innovative engineering solutions were developed that involved redesigning standard equipment including electric, height-adjustable, multi-component tables and adjustable sloped work surfaces for carrying out conservation treatments. This example of a multi-faceted, participative ergonomics approach, combining innovative engineering controls, with changes to the work practices and improved awareness of risk for injury has been highly successful in reducing the risk of work-related musculoskeletal disorders from conservation treatments at Artlab Australia.","PeriodicalId":7847,"journal":{"name":"AICCM Bulletin","volume":"37 1","pages":"42 - 48"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10344233.2016.1206289","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59922810","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The process of preservation therefore has strong impact on the transmission of cultural knowledge and the definition of identity. The works of Elman Service, Nicholas Thomas and Marica Pointon have examined concepts of geography, economics and politics to argue how, as custodians of cultural artefacts, cultural institutions can reframe the idea of authority knowledge. Informed by this work, and the broader critique of cultural positions by Arjun Appadurai and others, institutions have sought to enhance knowledge and presentations by engagement with collection-specific expert knowledge holders within communities, and, in so doing, to democratise the representation of cultural material. Defined initially by Mary Louise Pratt and later James Clifford, contact zones have been utilised within museums to create shared spaces for dialogue and exchange. Focusing on two case studies, the Returned and Services League LifeCare War Museum in Narrabeen and the Middle Eastern Manuscript Collection at the University of Melbourne, this paper examines how academic specialist knowledge in cultural materials conservation can be aligned with the needs of community-focused museums to enhance knowledge and understanding of the collection, and its conservation needs, through specialist expertise held by communities. It does so by examining how different zones—the initial landing zone, the early exploration zone, the collaboration zone and the transfer of knowledge zone—provide opportunities for potent interactions and complex creative exchanges.","PeriodicalId":7847,"journal":{"name":"AICCM Bulletin","volume":"37 1","pages":"13 - 3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10344233.2016.1206288","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59922842","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Francisco in 1953, which were commissioned for the main entrance hall of the Philippine General Hospital in Manila. The Hospital's entrance hall opens directly onto the outdoor environment. With air pollution and pedestrian traffic through the hospital, combined with termite infestation and minor incidents of vandalism, the paintings began to exhibit signs of severe deterioration, such that restoration was performed in 1974, then again in 1991 and in 2006. Nevertheless, the condition of the paintings continued to worsen. This gave rise to the idea of transferring the original paintings to a special gallery of the National Museum of the Philippines, in exchange for high-quality reproductions that would take their place at the hospital entrance. Such an initiative would be unprecedented in the Philippines, but was made possible by the shared recognition of all stakeholders that the paintings were highly significant. This paper describes how a collaborative approach to a large-scale conservation project has led to increased recognition of and support for the conservation department at the National Museum of the Philippines.","PeriodicalId":7847,"journal":{"name":"AICCM Bulletin","volume":"37 1","pages":"35 - 41"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10344233.2016.1206297","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59922863","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Following a phenomenological methodology in which the research question is contested against real world experience, two case studies investigate the potential of reconstruction as a methodology in the conservation of Indigenous Australian archival material and the contexts in which it is created and used. First, a comparative analysis of metadata and documentation practices at the Warlayirti Artists’ Centre archive in Balgo, Western Australia, outlines the role of conservation in supporting the reintegration of access to artist-run archives. Second, an interview with the artist Brook Andrew documents how contemporary Indigenous artists create their own archives to disrupt received notions of identity, and to articulate the archival continuum into which contemporary Indigenous identity develops. This study develops a model of reconstruction to provide theoretical and practical guidelines for understanding the relevance and role of archives, and the significance of archival re-appropriation by Indigenous artists. This paper argues that, in supporting and enabling the process of reconstruction, conservators can work with Indigenous Australian artists to sustain their cultural past and collective memory in different material forms into the present.","PeriodicalId":7847,"journal":{"name":"AICCM Bulletin","volume":"37 1","pages":"14 - 25"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10344233.2016.1205837","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59922815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The treatment focused on remediation of textile staining and discolouration which had progressively increased over the period of exhibition. In addition to the treatment, the Gallery undertook to reproduce three textile components comprising the upper and lower pillowcases and the duvet cover. The monumental scale of In Bed posed considerable conservation challenges in both undertaking the cleaning treatment and manufacturing the reproduction textile pieces. An extensive literature review revealed little published material on the treatment of large contemporary textiles, therefore the treatment methodology was based on principles developed for historic textiles. To wash the oversised textile pieces, the Gallery built a 5 × 8 m custom-designed washtub and drying rack. The use of theatre curtaining in the manufacture of the original and reproduction textiles required experimental work to determine the validity and success of established historic textile treatments applied in a contemporary context.","PeriodicalId":7847,"journal":{"name":"AICCM Bulletin","volume":"36 1","pages":"124 - 135"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10344233.2015.1126991","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59922733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
