Just out of curiousity, what do people think of the various "gallery waxes"
you can buy at art supply stores?  I have found that they hold fairly light
objects even to textured walls, and that they are useful for leveling
artwork and holding small pieces (ie lids) to clay/sculpture which is not
going to be put in a vitrine, but I wonder about conservation issues and
getting it off valuable objects.

In my personal life (ie dorm), I have the same sort of situation--the
university disallows tacks and nails, yet we have textured wallpaper (ie
nothing, except gallery wax sticks!).  I'm trying to figure out how to hang
my collection of movie posters and art posters (which have a lot of
sentimental value and would be relatively hard to replace).  Suggestions?
