The Department of Arts and Restoration and Dubrovnik Libraries cooperated in the organisation of the 1st International conference of the Dubrovnik Scientific Library ‘Exhibition of Heritage Items’, which was held from 28 to 30 September 2022 on Zoom. The conference gathered experts from all around the world in order to exchange experiences and present new insights about the protection of cultural goods.
The conference included expert lectures, papers, posters and a panel discussion. The aim of the conference was to review best practices in sustainable preventive conservation and the way how to treat risk management in order to preserve collections before, during and after exhibiting. Lectures and presentations were intended for curators, exhibition designers, prepares, conservators, restaurateurs, librarians, archivists, security staff and to all those included in the planning, designing and setting up exhibitions in cultural institutions as well as to the wider public.
Abstracts from the lectures are available at the following link:
