Ethical Dilemmas in the Conservation of Modern and Contemporary Art
go to web-page and video
"We live in a society that does not always value the signs of age. Many modern and contemporary works of art were either intentionally meant to be ephemeral, or were made from new and untested materials that have turned out to be dramatically unstable. The resulting deterioration of these objects raises difficult questions about their conservation."
