    Subject: Art Conservation and Exposure to Light

    The Lighting Resource is featuring an article entitled "A
    Suggested Exhibition/Exposure Policy for Works of Art on Paper"
    written by Karen M. Colby.  The article was first published in
    1992 in the Journal of the International Institute for
    Conservation - Canadian Group.  When Karen wrote this she was
    describing a new lighting policy at the Montreal Museum of Fine
    Arts.

    Responding to a newsgroup posting on the internet, Jane Ketcham
    formerly with Beloit College said, "It describes a lighting
    policy based on three basic categories of sensitivity, and
    provides lists of specific inks, pigments, other media and
    supports in each category."

    Karen Colby Stothart is currently Senior Project Manager in the
    Exhibition Management Division at the National Gallery of
    Canada, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada and she is also the current
    President of the Canadian Association of Conservators.
