In cooperation with the abovementioned organizations, the workshop “Preservation and Restoration of New Media Art” was organized in February. Under the guidance of the LIMA staff and Ellen Jansen, professor at the UvA, students of the Masters Preservation and Restoration worked on four case studies – four complex works of art from LIMA’s archives. The students documented all segments of the works and examined the technological, conceptual and art historical background of the objects and installations. To do this they consulted with various experts including the artists themselves. Ultimately the works were reconstructed and exhibited or installed in the lab. This workshop will be repeated annually.
