Hi Has anyone among us experience of conservation of contemporary art works made of fiber and/or textile ? I'm in charge of inventoring a collection which has just been donated to a local public institution. The collection is beautiful and includes works from Magdalena Abakanowicz, Jagoda Buic, Peter and Ritzi Jacobi, Olga de Amaral, as well as American and Japanese artists. The 2-dimensions wall tapestries of the 60' or 70's will be rolled with acid-free silk paper. But the problem is for the 3D textile/fiber pieces : how to store a wool piece like a big soft colomn for instance ? And the place is unfortunately rather limited : crates cannot be bigger than about 1 x 1 x 1 meter. Your advices, your experience in such conservation matters will be very precious and I'm really grateful in advance. Béatrice Béguin CH - 1308 La Chaux/Cossonay E-mail : [log in to unmask]
