IIC Congress 2002



The following information comes from another listserv to which I belong.
Note that the Congress meets at the same time as SAA.

IIC CONGRESS 2002

"Works of Art on Paper, Books, Documents and Photographs: Techniques and
Conservation"

At the invitation of the Washington Conservation Guild, the International
Institute for Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works will hold its
nineteenth international congress in Baltimore, Maryland, 1-6 September
2002. The meeting will take place at the newly
opened Baltimore Marriott Waterfront Hotel.

The subject of the conference is one which IIC has long neglected: paper,
in its broadest sense, including works of art on paper, books, documents
and photographs. Following the success of the IIC Dublin Congress on
painting techniques in 1998, we would like to include the study of original
materials and techniques of manufacture as well as methods of restoration
and conservation (in all its aspects) of works on paper.

Papers presented at an IIC congress and published in the contributions
undergo a rigorous peer review process. Our Technical Committee on this
occasion consists of Gerhard Banik (Staatliche Akademie der Bildenden
Kunste, Stuttgart), Astrid-Christiane Brandt-Grau (Ministere de la Culture
et de la Communication, Paris), Katsuhiko Masuda (Tokyo National Research
Institute of Cultural Properties), Debra Hess Norris (Winterthur/University
of Delaware Program in Art Conservation), Abigail Quandt (Walters Art
Gallery, Baltimore) and Helen Shenton (British Library, London). They will
review the summaries received in response to the Call for Papers and select
those authors who will be invited to submit a draft manuscript. Then the
committee will review the drafts and decide on the contributions which will
form the Technical Programme.

Further information about the congress will be available later this year on
IIC's website at www.iiconservation.org
