| book description |

This volume represents a forum for conservators, conservation scientists, artists and heritage managers. It includes the voices of many of the different partners involved in the complex task of preserving artworks:â€¢ The vital experience of artists who create murals and are sometimes asked to treat their creations;â€¢ Theoretical reflections on how to deal methodologically with conservation;â€¢ Scientific studies on the identification of constituent materials and/or on the development of procedures for their preservation;â€¢ The opinion of cultural managers;â€¢ The specific experiences of conservators.All of the above must have a voice in the difficult task of preserving such a challenging and changing heritage.Este volumen se plantea como un foro de encuentro entre conservadores restauradores, cientÃficos, artistas y gestores del patrimonio. En Ã©l se incluye el trabajo de los diferentes interlocutores que participan en la compleja tarea de conservar una obra de arte: â€¢ La experiencia vital del artista creador de murales, que a veces es llamado para restaurar lo que ya hizo;â€¢ Las reflexiones teÃ³ricas sobre el modo de enfrentarnos metodolÃ³gicamente a su conservaciÃ³n y restauraciÃ³n;â€¢ Los estudios cientÃficos destinados a la identificaciÃ³n de materiales constitutivos o la puesta a punto de procedimientos para su conservaciÃ³n;â€¢ La opiniÃ³n de quienes se encargan de su gestiÃ³n;â€¢ Las experiencias concretas de conservadores restauradores.Todos ellos deben tener voz en la difÃcil tarea de conservar un patrimonio complejo y cambiante.
