Conference on Reversibility

Reversibility - Does It Exist?

The British Museum Department of Conservation will hold a three-day
conference from 8-10 September 1999 in London.  The concept of
reversibility as applied to cleaning, stabilization, consolidation,
assembly and restoration will be addressed, as will changes to the
physical or chemical properties of objects as a result of
conservation.  The conference will be confined to the portable
heritage, excluding buildings but including mosaics and wall
paintings.
