Symposium on frames

AICCM - FRAME: Concept, History and Conservation
A symposium on the picture frame.
Hosted by the National Gallery of Victoria
Melbourne, Australia
24-26 August 2016

The Australian Institute for the Conservation of Cultural Material,
Conservation Framing and Gilded Objects special interest groups will
hold this international symposium encompassing both traditional
framing as well as broader concepts of framing for the presentation
of modern and contemporary art and design.  This wide ranging theme
will appeal to artists, conservators, curators, designers, frame
makers and historians.

Our symposium will coincide with the exhibition Melbourne Winter
Masterpieces 2016 - Degas: A New Vision.  Several speakers will
focus on the frames designed by Degas for his artworks, further
enriching our understanding of the artist and his work.  The twenty
speakers include prominent international experts Lynn Roberts and Dr
Eva Mendgen, and Australian specialists Dr Malgorzata Sawicki, John
Payne and Holly McGowan-Jackson.

The symposium will cost AU$495.00 AICCM member early registration

AU$660.00 for a non-member and AU$330.00 for concession and student.
