Subject: Survey on collaged works on canvas
I am a Masters student at Northumbria University in Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK. I am currently researching for my dissertation with the working title "Condition Reports for Collaged Works on Canvas". I am researching the history of collaged works and how these works are examined in a museum setting. Would you mind taking some time to fill out this nine question survey on how condition reports are completed for mixed media pieces? Within my dissertation, I am defining a condition report as "a written report of an examination of the verso and recto of the object". My case study is Juan Gris' The Sunblind from 1914 which is gouache, collage, chalk and charcoal on canvas. I will not be discussing treatment of the works, but I will discuss general concerns regarding conserving a collaged work on canvas. The survey takes less than 15 minutes to complete and can be accessed by the link below. <URL:http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/KVG3GSX> One of the questions in the survey asks if you are willing to share a condition report of a collaged work within your collection. If this is possible, the condition report will be used for this dissertation only. It is solely for academic purposes and will not be shared or used for any other reason. Please email me at email address below if you have work to share. Thank you in advance for your time, and I greatly appreciate your input for my research. Have a wonderful holiday.
