Workshop on use of vacuum in paper conservation

Camberwell College of Arts is to host a two- day workshop exploring
the use of vacuum in the conservation of works of art on paper, with
the support of Conservation By Design (CXD).

Taking place in the conservation studios of the College building on
Peckham Road between 10am and 4pm on 7-8 August 2012, the workshop
will be run by Alan Buchanan.

During the event, those attending will have to access different
kinds of vacuum machine, while treatments such as washing and
bleaching, solvent tape removal, lining and pulp infilling will be
examined. Places on the workshop cost UKP200 and are limited to only
eight. CXD will donate the UKP1,600 proceeds in the form of
conservation materials for use by the students of the department.

Those wishing to attend should apply to Christopher French
