Recording the materials of the object (J. Braun 2002)
Abstract: „Hasengrab IV“ („Hare’s grave IV“) – an object of modern art composed of heterogeneous materials posed the following question: was the observed damage intended by the artist. Following the decision-making model it was decided that the insect infestation, soiling and the structural damage occurred after creation and was not intentional. Furthermore it had to be decided whether the glass case in which the object was found actually belonged to it. The insect infestation was treated with nitrogen and the glass case was sealed against further infestation. The structural damage was secured by an adhesive treatment. Additionally, advice for the object’s future presentation and transportation is given.
