Beyond University … Professional life and projects from life after university
AIL
The working field of academic conservators is constantly
evolving and expanding. In addition to practical conservation, assessments and surveys, the development of conservation concepts,
and the formulation of preservation strategies for individual objects, ensembles, and collections, research in conservation,
and collection care are just some of the many current areas of work.
Being a conservator means
dealing with various objects with individual problems and reacting flexibly to the most diverse requirements of one's own
field of activity. Graduates in conservation are characterized by scientific and practical skills, a responsible approach
to art and cultural assets, and a methodical and structured approach.
In the lectures, alumni from the specialist areas
of the diploma programme taught at the Angewandte, conservation of paintings, objects, textiles and stone, provide insights
into their everyday work.
