Carnegie Institute (Andy Warhol Museum)

The Andy Warhol Museum will engage two painting conservators from the Intermuseum Conservation Association to undertake an item-level survey of 100 paintings that comprise a representative sample of each time period and technique of Warhol's work. The conservators will document the condition and conservation requirements for these works, enabling the museum to better define its criteria for placing objects on the "do not travel list" and develop conservation plans for works that are damaged or in need of attention. The conservators will spend five days on site completing the surveys, compile the resulting data into a written report, and then return for a half-day to conduct an examination workshop for Warhol staff.
