Symposium｜ Tangite me : Reconsidering Conservation during the Pandemic

*This event has ended, but we are still streaming the recording on YouTube. Please click here to view the video.

To “touch” artworks is both a way of learning more about them and an act of the possibility of direct destruction. The practice of conservation, which can begin with “touch”, has always faced such a dilemma. Starting from practices shared by specialists who have undertaken conservation of artworks in Keio, we will reconsider conservation from the perspective of “touch”. We hope that this symposium will provide an opportunity to discuss and rethink the present and future of the conservation and the use of artworks during the Pandemic.
