    The aim of this meeting is to discuss the current issues,
    approaches and methods used for conserving Outdoor Painted
    Sculpture. It is hoped that the meeting will provide an
    opportunity for dialogue both within the conservation community,
    and with others, such as the paint industry, fabricators,
    curators and artists' estate, foundations and studios. The
    Kroller-Muller Museum has a large collection of outdoor
    sculptures with more than 150 works exhibited in its sculpture
    garden, and as such will provide the perfect setting for the
    meeting. There will be an opportunity to view the collection,
    including works under discussion at the meeting
