Conservation of Contemporary Art
This open access book investigates whether and how theoretical findings and insights in contemporary art conservation can be translated into the daily work practices of conservators or, vice versa, whether and how the problems and dilemmas encountered in conservation practice can inform broader research questions and projects. For several decades now, the conservation of contemporary art has been a dynamic field of research and reflection. Because of contemporary art’s variable constitution, its care and management calls for a fundamental rethinking of the overall research landscape of museums, heritage institutions, private-sector organizations and universities. At first, this research was primarily pursued by conservation professionals working in or with museums and other heritage organizations, but increasingly academic researchers and universities became involved, for instance through collaborative projects. This book is the result of such collaboration. It sets out to bridge the “gap” between theory and practice by investigating conservation practices as a form of reflection and reflection as a form of practice.

The attempt to discover what is animal, not surprisingly, leads to a greater understanding of what it means to be human. In Becoming Animal, 12 internationally known artists investigate the shifting boundaries between animal and human. Their explorations may be a barometer of things to come. T...
Contemporary Art
"The collection held by the ZKM / Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe displays works of art ranging from those executed using classical painting techniques to spectacular multimedia installations created by international artists." "Contemporary Art contrasts the new genre of multimedia art with art in its more traditional forms; painting, sculpture, graphics and photography. It puts these new works into the art-historical context of the 20th century and explores possible directions for the future."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
