Research Project Description<\/b>
\nThis research will focus on articulating a conceptual framework and standards for a multi-criteria system of valuation in the following stages: 1) study of current valuation models (e.g. the model developed by RCE) in the light of contemporary art conservation theory and 2) investigation of these models in practice \u2013 with an emphasis on if and how values and valuation are articulated in the discourses and practices of conservation itself. The researcher will observe conservation practices through case studies provided by INCCA-CEE (chair INCCA \u2013 Central Eastern Europe) and the Muzeum Sztuki in \u0141\u00f3d\u017a (where Ms Kiliszek will do a research internship), and by the other NACCA projects.
\nValues will be presented in context of Museum Sztuki in \u0141od\u017a as an very unique and important collection in Europe which was already established shortly after the collection of the MOMA in New York by exchange of works among avant-garde artists in 1930. Different types of actors may assign or prioritize different types of values to an artwork, such as art-historical (including artistic and aesthetic) values, emotive values, functional values, educational values, and social, political or economic values. In order to come to a responsible conservation strategy, a great variety of values should be taken into account and their historical development acknowledged.<\/p>\n
