Updates from TATE

The team group of TATE currently working in the framework of NANORESTART, has some updates about its contribution to the project.

They have narrowed down the case study list to three artworks from the collection, each of which will be investigated in detail, replicated in a series of mock-ups used for testing cleaning options, and eventually considered for surface cleaning.

The first case study will focus on two sculptures created in 1967 by Michael Dillon – both titled Op Structure.

Further information about this part of TATE researchers work is reported in the NANORESTART section of TATE website.

Updates will be soon available there and in the Achievements section of the NANORESTART project.
