Subject: Light exposure limits
In planning a long term exhibition (five to seven years) that could possibly include works on various papers (fine art and non) as well as paintings and 3D objects. What suggestions might some of you have as to increasing the ability of these prints to stay up for longer periods of time without receiving serious light damage, specifically, for a period of more than a year? What we currently do is enclose them in museum frames with protection behind UF3 plexi and closely monitor the light levels in the gallery. Are there any contemporary methods used to increase the time a print can stay on a wall?
