Bob and Sheila Keller will be discussing the many of the enemies that attack Artwork/Paintings such as: heat, cold, moisture, sharp objects, light, smoke, etc. When these enemies attack artwork, they have a deleterious and often irreversible affect on various types of paintings. They will describe how Eclectic Art & Objects Gallery conservators handle various types of "Art Attacks" through time proven conservation processes and techniques in an effort to "Win the Battle Against Art Attacks".
