"Restoring Yves Klein's Blue Monochrome (1961) requires much more than just the exact right shade of blue paint. The Museum of Modern Art paintings #conservator Ellen Davis corrects the surface texture in several areas of Klein's iconic #painting to adjust for previous #conservation efforts." Many have never heard of #art conservators and conservation. In this video we see how conservation goes far beyond just getting the correct paint color. What has been your experience with conservation? Please share it in your comments.

Excellent exhibition concept. Another museum trip to New York is on deck. "We like to keep history as we’ve learned it in a headlock, to make sure it doesn’t shift or change. Standard maps are useful aids in imposing paralysis. They turn the world into a fixed field of safe-spots and blanks, an us-them weave of gates and fences. One of the many — many — benefits of much-maligned “wokeness” has been its message to relax the hold, toss the charts or, better, revise them: explore blanks, rethink fences. It’s thanks to this more free-breathing approach to history, including art history, that we’re getting a challenger of an exhibition like “Africa & Byzantium,” which opens at the Metropolitan Museum of Art this Sunday. On the beauty-and-rarity scale it’s way up there: a treasure-chest of fragile and resplendent things — painted books, topline textiles, gilt-flecked mosaics — many on a first-time visit to New York from Africa, Asia and Europe."

Our history has always been carried in song, on canvas, or on the page. That won't change. #ArtAsHistory #HistoricalArt #ArtisticTimeline #HistoryThroughArt #ArtVehicleOfTime #PaintingThePast #SculptingHistory #CanvasOfCivilizations #ArtifactsTellTales #MasterpiecesOfHistory

Did you know? 🤔 In the 18th century, clerks would write brief summaries of minutes on small sculptures called 'minute sculptures' 🎨📝 to help them quickly recall important decisions and actions! 📝 These tiny notes were the precursor to modern meeting minutes 📄 and played a crucial role in keeping track of important discussions and agreements. 🤝 Minute sculptures were a clever way to condense complex information into a small, easily digestible format - a practice that still inspires efficient note-taking today! 💡 #MinuteSculptura #MeetingMinutes #History #ProductivityHacks

Culture and Colors of Our Changing Planet 🌍🎨 Museum collections hold stories of how humans have shaped the world – pushing it to the limits of the #planetaryboundaries. In this hottest summer ever recorded, the unique #artworks show how colors we link with seasons are fading. Summer now looks like fall because plants are „confused”. The picture compares paintings from the XIX century with current photos from Central Europe in August. While variables like tree species and local nuances aren’t factored in, the symbolism is profound. The simplicity of colors also used in the #climatestripes helps to understand the #emergency. In the near future, museums might evolve into archives of lost #biodiversity safeguarding the wonders of life’s variety and being a planetary memories. Arts and culture will serve as mirrors, reminding us of the bygone images of summer. What colors do you see now? #ShowYourStripes differently with the power of visual culture.
