For conservators, this raises an existential challenge when considering what elements of these artworks can and should be preserved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis provocative volume revisits the traditional notions of conservation and museum collecting that developed over the centuries to suit a conception of art as static, fixed, and permanent objects. Conservators and museums increasingly struggle with issues of conservation for works created from the mid-twentieth to the twenty-first century that are unstable over time. The contributors ask what it means to conserve artworks that fundamentally address and embody the notion of change and, through this questioning, guide us to reevaluate the meaning of art, of objects, and of materiality itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eObject—Event—Performance\u003c\/em\u003e considers a selection of post-1960s artworks that have all been chosen for their instability, changeability, performance elements, and processes that pose questions about their relationship to conservation practices. This volume will be a welcome resource on contemporary conservation for art historians, scholars of dance and theatre studies, curators, and conservators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47431760478444,"sku":"9781941792223","price":123.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781941792223.jpg?v=1774557229"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/hanna-b-holling.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
