CONSERVING CANVAS 2022 – WATER-BASED ADHESIVES IN CANVAS PAINTINGS’ STRUCTURAL CONSERVATION
\nGALLERIE NAZIONALI DI ARTE ANTICA (ROME)<\/strong><\/p>\n

CALL FOR APPLICATION<\/strong>
\nWOKSHOPS JULY – SEPTEMBER 2022<\/p>\n

As part of the Conserving Canvas<\/a><\/strong> program funded by The Getty Foundation<\/a><\/strong>, the Gallerie Nazionali di Arte Antica promote a practical workshop divided into three editions, each dedicated to the structural restoration of one of the large paintings on canvas in the Throne Room of Palazzo Barberini<\/strong>: the Battle of Constantine<\/em> by Carlo Viva (Carluccio Napoletano), copy of the celebrated Vatican fresco by Giulio Romano commissioned by the Barberini in 1666 (oil on canvas, cm 295 x 565); The Wedding of Peleus and Thetis<\/em> (oil on canvas, cm 315 x 715) and Bacchus and Ariadne<\/em> (oil on canvas, cm 315 x 725) copies commissioned to the painter Giuseppe Belloni by cardinal Francesco Barberini between 1664 and 1673 to replace the originals by Giovan Francesco Romanelli, who left for England as a diplomatic gift from the Barberini family to King Charles II.<\/p>\n

The three paintings are preserved in the Throne Room where the workshops will take place. Other activities will be held in the museum\u2019s conservation laboratory<\/a>, with a program of theoretical and practical activities regarding the techniques of structural consolidation and lining with water-based adhesives, with a particular focus on large-scale works. Here participants will produce validity test and then assess the adhesive and mechanical properties of different mixtures and application methodologies.<\/p>\n

The workshops will be led by experts in the field coordinated by Chiara Merucci<\/strong> and Matteo Rossi Doria<\/strong> in collaboration with museum\u2019s and C.B.C.<\/a> restorers.<\/p>\n

The project will therefore be an opportunity to reflect on the problems of restoration of works on large canvas that, starting from the great Italian tradition, aims to test an innovative path of review and scientific and methodological re-evaluation of structural reinforcement interventions with water-based adhesives, non-toxic, environmentally friendly, sustainable and reversible.<\/p>\n

Workshops<\/strong> will be held on the following dates and will be open to nine restorers (three in each edition)<\/strong>: <\/p>\n

First Edition July 4 \u2013 16, 2022<\/strong>
\nSecond Edition July 25 – August 6, 2022<\/strong>
\nThird Edition September 5 \u2013 17, 2022<\/strong><\/p>\n

Travels, accommodations and daily allowance for the nine selected participants will be covered by Gallerie Nazionali-Getty Foundation<\/p>\n
