Magazine article

The May issue of the Washingtonian Magazine has an article about me
and the Nishio Conservation Studio.  The magazine will be available
the last week of April on magazine stands and in book stores.  The
conservation staff of Nishio Conservation Studio and I were
interviewed by a Washingtonian writer and a photographer in the
studio in March.  They heard about us from a well-known
architectural designer, Nestor Santa-Cruz, with whom I have worked
and who has also been featured in the magazine. This article
introduces Asian painting conservation and the Nishio Conservation
Studio to the public. Nishio conservation Studio is celebrating its
10th Anniversary this year.  There will be another article about our
studio in the summer issue of the Japan Air Lines Magazine. The
writer and photographers will come from Japan to interview us in
June.  If you ever fly JAL, please take a look.

I will also be presenting a documentary video that I wrote and
directed:

    The Conservation of Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum's Grapevine
    Screen

at the Book and Paper Group of the AIC Annual Meeting in
Minneapolis.  That was my first professional video project and was
commissioned by the ISG museum and supported by an IMLS Grant.
Please do not miss it if you are at the AIC Annual Meeting and
interested in the video format of documentation.
