From the moment a work is included in a collection, there are usually several conservation aspects to be investigated. For us, conservators, it is important to investigate this interplay with the work of art, for example the way in which installations are exhibited and conserved. Installations have extremely diverse characteristics and are probably the most difficult cases to chart. Aspects like variability, reproduction, performance, electronic media, and interaction are incorporated in many works. Ready-made answers for dealing with these works do not exist. Here, research lies at the heart of the quest for solutions and is preferably the framework for an interactive thought process between artist and researcher. Interactive research, resulting in guidelines for individual works of art, is the basis and often the only guarantee for the continued existence of the work. Should no communication exist in this regard, then one would have no idea of how to tackle these works after their initial installation. An installation might remain “unvaryingly” installed and often disintegrate because of its fragility or complexity.
Frederika Huys gives an insight into the conservation and documentation methods used in her practice to preserve contemporary artworks. The application of several methods used for the preservation and representation of complex works such as installation art, electronic media, performances, and re-executable art will be discussed. Often she works in cooperation with restorers from various disciplines, engineers, scientists, and technicians.
The approach or strategy for conservation is determined based on various sources and arguments. Interaction with the artist is in many cases the basis to assess the possibilities and limitations.
Various conservation strategies for conservation:
- The preservation of the original
- Replacing parts
- The re-executing a work of art, like a performance or a conceptual artwork
- Migrating an artwork to a new carrier or format
- Emulating an artwork to a contemporary application
- The reinterpretation of an artwork, alternative modes of representation
A second part of the presentation gives insights into the tools that are made to preserve the artwork in the long term.
- Reference materials
- Replacement materials for items with a short lifespan
- Materials for implementing conceptual artworks
- Instructional video for the reenactment of installations
- Technical manuals, drawings and plans
- Condition reports and protocols
- Archive and documentation
