I'm so glad to see so many discussions on safety here! What a great forum.

I am a graduate student at the University of Findlay, Ohio. I have a Master's 
degree in Fine Arts and am currently working toward a Master's in Health 
Environment and Safety Management. For my thesis project I am attempting 
to combine the two into a discussion of health and safety practices in the 
studio/classroom environment as opposed to the museum environment. I am 
more interested in artwork which may pose hazards rather than building or 
environmental hazards, although the two may relate to each other. For 
example, an artist creating an piece using electronic lighting may take 
precautions for himself in the studio, but are the lighting issues (bright flashing 
lights, or low lighting affecting walkways, or exposed electrical cords or other 
parts) addressed in the gallery as well?

I would readily welcome information anyone who works in such and 
environment, and have an informal one-page questionnaire available. 
Thank you!
