Get PDFAs for the objectives set by the Charter on the Risk of Cultural Heritage and of the Territorial Information System at a regional level and in particular concerning Sicily, the research is aimed at reaching two goals with an integral and consistent approach. The first objective is to collect the necessary information and to carry out an action plan in order to help the person in charge with the cultural unit (museum, library, archive, picture gallery) to reach and keep a good “status” of the cultural heritage and at the same time to keep a high quality of life and work in the cultural unit. The document which will be drafted will provide the basic and general information for the various areas of the working environment that are adjacent to each other. At the same time the document will provide guidelines for the safety and the conservation of the cultural collections of the museum and will have to be adapted to each cultural unit with specific features concerning the “system: manufactures with historical-artistic interest / or interesting for the conservation environment”. Some sites that are considered to be emblematic will be tested, and this is the second objective of the research, they will be carefully chosen as representative of the various, complex and variable logistic and cultural situations of our country and in particular of Sicily
La laurea honoris causa in Conservazione dei Beni Culturali a Friedrich Krinzinger. Considerazioni sulla conservazione in situ dei reperti di scavo
Get PDFFriedrich Krinzinger, Professor of Classic Archaeology at the Vienna University and director of the Austrian Archaeological Institute has been interested in the techniques and in their applications in archaeology since he was young and he funded and ran IDEA in Vienna, Center of interdisciplinary research for the application of natural sciences to archaeology. He was director of the Austrian archaeological mission in Ephesus and worked at a large covering of a housing complex in Hefesus, that was unearthed in the Sixties of the XX century, full of frescoes, mosaics, stuccoes and marbles, the so-called “Hanghaus 2”. In this way he solved the problem of safeguarding on the spot the manufactures that were found in the excavations and he adopted a new system, in terms of size and ideas, in the field of conservation. If an archaeological site with ruins, that is the product of the work of archaeologists and restorers, is placed under a large covering with highly modern materials there are new problems for the viewer and this gives food for thought on the past and on the conservation of the site
