THE RESTORATION
THE RESTORATION OF THE PAINTINGS
Ancient paintings
Modern paintings
Contemporary paintings
The restoration of two-dimensional works or paintings made on canvas, on wood or on different supports, be they ancient, modern or contemporary, is a set of very complex operations.
In all cases, the restorer’s primary need is to respect the work of art with the awareness that it must be kept intact as long as possible in its specific characteristics. This is why I prefer to carry out maintenance interventions, as they are a real prevention of the degenerative state.
However, when the aesthetic-conservative conditions have modified the work of art to the point of making it illegible and / or no longer recognizable as such, then the restoration operations are necessary to block the progress of decay, limit the modifications in act and make the work still usable in its double aesthetic and historical polarity.
Each of my restoration projects includes the study of the components of the work and painting techniques, their deterioration and their modifications over time.
Whether it is an ancient painting or a contemporary work, the intervention will be minimal and justified both from an aesthetic and historical point of view.
