This volume gathers papers from the ICON Paintings Group’s 2014 conference Modern Conservation: What’s New?, addressing the challenges of conserving contemporary artworks. Contributors explore innovative treatments and adaptations of traditional materials to tackle issues such as flaking paints, structural instability, vibration reduction, and wet surface cleaning. Case studies range from practical solutions—like using sports injury tape—to broader ethical questions around conceptual art. The volume offers vital insights for conservators working with modern materials and techniques.
