How Art and Science Go Together

If you have a love for both science and art, learning about art conversation might interest you. Art conservation is a combination of Art History, Studio Art, and Chemistry.

 

Art History: Works to understand where is the work from? Who made it and how was it made?

Studio Art: Has the skills to work on the piece.

Chemistry: Understands what a piece is made of, how it breaks down, and what methods can be used to work on a piece without harming it.

The two videos below walk you through 2 different processes to conservation an artwork.
