Treasures of Mogao: The Desert Gateway to China
Just one hundred years ago, at the ancient Buddhist cave temples of Mogao in the remote desert of northwest China, a Daoist monk named Wang Yuanlu made an astonishing discovery—a hidden library in Cave 17, sealed off in the 11th century. Since that discovery, the Mogao grottoes have become a mecca for scholars and tourists from around the world. For the last decade, the Getty Conservation Institute has been working in a variety of ways with the Dunhuang Academy at Mogao to preserve this extraordinary World Heritage site, whose art documents a thousand years of Chinese history.
Serving the Profession: A Conversation with Tim Whalen
The new director of the Getty Conservation Institute discusses the Institute's role within the mission of the Getty Trust and the ways in which the GCI will continue to serve the conservation field.
The Retablo of Yanhuitlán
In the small town of Yanhuitlán, Oaxaca, can be found one of Mexico's finest examples of colonial art—the main retablo, or altarpiece, of the Church of Santo Domingo. For several years, the GCI has been engaged in a project to conserve the retablo, in collaboration with the Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia and the community of Yanhuitlán. Extensive documentation of the retablo is completed, and the project team is now grappling with determining the best way to structurally stabilize this work of art, which is located in a region of frequent seismic activity.
Harnessing Digital Technology for Conservation Documentation
The center of the GCI's computer documentation work is its digital lab, housing imaging equipment and computers. Created over three years ago by the Institute's Conservation group to promote digital documentation, the lab has objectives that include support for documentation in field campaigns, training, and research. While integration of digital tools into the conservation documentation process is in its early stages, it holds the promise of vastly increasing the body of information easily available to conservation teams in the field and in the lab.

The Conservation of Earthen Architecture
The tradition of building with earth is evidenced the world over. Earthen structures range from simple forms to vast, monumental sites of high complexity. Indeed, earthen sites make up 10 percent of the UNESCO World Heritage List. But many significant sites are threatened. While new earthen construction—abetted by the environmental movement—has seen increasing standardization and industrialization in recent decades, the conservation of earthen architecture is still coming into its own as a discipline.
Conservation and Continuity of Tradition: A Discussion about Earthen Architecture
Three international specialists in the conservation of earthen architecture discuss the historical significance, the preservation challenge, and the future of this substantial—but often overlooked—part of the world's cultural heritage.
Project Terra
Since the late 1980s, the International Centre for Earth Construction—School of Architecture of Grenoble, the International Centre for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property, and the Getty Conservation Institute have collaborated on issues related to earthen architecture conservation. In 1997 they established Project Terra, with the mission of fostering the development of earthen architecture conservation as a science, a field of study, a professional practice, and a social endeavor.
Joya de Cerén: Conservation and Management Planning for an Earthen Archaeological Site
The World Heritage Site of Joya de Cerén in El Salvador is an exceptional window into the past. Buried by a volcanic eruption in the sixth century, the earthen architectural remains and the artifacts of this Classic Period village have been remarkably preserved. Nevertheless, the exposed excavated earthen structures present a conservation challenge. In 1998, as part of its Maya Initiative, the GCI, working with Salvadoran cultural authorities, began a collaborative project at Joya de Cerén to develop a conservation and management plan for the site.

The Conservation of Photography: Three Perspectives
Awareness of preservation challenges for photographs dates back to photography's inception in the mid-19th century. However, it was not until the latter part of the 20th century that conserving photographs emerged as a professional pursuit. The current state of conservation of photography is examined by three professionals in the field who explore some key areas for research, outline the development and needs of photographic conservation education, and describe the critical role photographic conservators can play in the care of photographic collections.
Evolution of a Medium: A Discussion about Photography and Its Conservation
Image Permanence Institute in Rochester, New York, and Bertrand Lavédrine, director of the Centre de recherches sur la conservation des documents graphiques in Paris, along with Getty photographic conservators Marc Harnly and Teresa Mesquit, discuss the conservation of photographs with the GCI’s Dusan Stulik and Jeffrey Levin.
Conservation of Photographic Collections: A New Collaborative Project at the GCI
The conservation of photographic collections and photographic material is relatively young when compared with other museum conservation areas. To expand the existing body of knowledge regarding photographic conservation, the Getty Conservation Institute recently embarked on a collaborative project to advance techniques for characterizing photographic material and identifying variations in photographic processes.
Conserving Mosaics in Tunisia
The areas of North Africa along the Mediterranean that were once part of the Roman world are abundant in preserved mosaics—particularly in what is today modern Tunisia. As part of the GCI's project on in situ mosaic conservation, the GCI and Tunisia's Institut National du Patrimoine (INP) have collaborated on a program to provide training for INP staff in order to help save this immensely rich heritage from further deterioration.

A selection of modern paint materials. The artists' paint market underwent a dramatic change in the 20th century with the development of synthetic paints. Created for the burgeoning house paint market, paints containing synthetic resins allowed for more rapid drying and displayed less yellowing with age than paints made with oil—the traditional binding medium. Synthetic paints were eventually formulated for the artists' market. By the 1960s one of these—acrylic emulsion paint—was becoming among the most widely used paint materials.

Modern Science and Contemporary Paintings: Preserving an Evolving Legacy
Paintings produced in earlier eras used a relatively circumscribed range of artists’ materials. Today artists are not limited to these traditional materials but may also choose from a variety of commercial paint media—such as acrylics, nitrocellulose, and alkyds—as well as a profusion of synthetic pigments. Given that research into artists’ materials and their use plays an important role in conservation, the tremendous increase in the number of available materials creates new challenges for conservation professionals.
Time and Change: A Discussion about the Conservation of Modern and Contemporary Art
Those charged with conserving modern and contemporary art confront a variety of practical and philosophical considerations. Conservators Jim Coddington and Carol Mancusi-Ungaro and art historian Kirk Varnedoe shared their thoughts on a number of these complicated but intriguing issues with the GCI's Jeffrey Levin.
Modern Paints: A New Collaborative Research Project
Knowledge regarding how well modern paint media will withstand the passage of time remains extremely limited. A new integrated collaborative project—initiated in 2002 by Tate in London, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and the Getty Conservation Institute—will address some of the questions we have regarding the character of modern paint materials. The project will conduct research in three main areas: cleaning of modern paintings, chemical analysis, and physical characterization.
Conserving the Buddhist Wall Paintings at Mogao
Since 1989 the Getty Conservation Institute and the Dunhuang Academy have collaborated on conservation at the Mogao grottoes, an important site of Buddhist worship along China’s Silk Road, today inscribed on the World Heritage List. Beginning in 1997, one aspect of the collaboration has focused on the conservation of wall paintings. The wall paintings project is developing approaches that will have wide application not only at Mogao but also at similar sites on the Silk Road.

A Free, Meandering Brook: Thoughts on Conservation Education
Heritage conservation is experiencing a variety of new pressures—greater stakeholder involvement, changing expectations for heritage use, disparate and conflicting values, diminishing or changing resources, and new materials and media to conserve, to name just a few. In addition, ensuring that heritage is accessible and valued by the public is critical to conservation's viability. How will the evolving state of conservation be reflected in the way that professionals are educated? Will the learning models of the past and present equip students with the knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes they will need for the way conservation will be practiced in 5, 10, and 20 years?
A Lifetime of Learning: A Discussion about Conservation Education
Three conservators who now direct academic programs—May Cassar, Michele Marincola, and Frank Matero—talk with the GCI's Kathleen Dardes and Jeffrey Levin about where conservation education ought to be heading in a time of expanding information, diminished resources, and needed public involvement.
Education in the Conservation of Immovable Heritage: An Approach in Sub-Saharan Africa
Until recently, African approaches to conservation education were based on Western concepts in which the materials, style, and monumental character of heritage formed the basis for conservation. But African heritage concepts embrace spiritual, social, and religious meanings, myths, and relationships with ancestors and the environment. Some in Africa are now developing conservation approaches related to intangible heritage and cultural landscapes, and they are incorporating these approaches into training initiatives aimed at increasing national capacities for management and conservation of immovable cultural heritage.
A Partnership in Education: The UCLA/Getty Master's Program
The conservation of archaeological and ethnographic material is an important part of our efforts to preserve the cultural remains of the past and to ensure that future generations can know and learn about the past directly from surviving artifacts. The Getty Conservation Institute and the University of California, Los Angeles, are currently developing a graduate-level program in archaeological and ethnographic conservation designed to complement existing programs and to expand educational opportunities. The aim of the program will be to provide students with a solid educational base and practical training.

The conservation of archaeological and ethnographic material is an important part of our efforts to preserve the cultural remains of the past and to ensure that future generations can know and learn about the past directly from surviving artifacts. The Getty Conservation Institute and the University of California, Los Angeles, are currently developing a graduate-level program in archaeological and ethnographic conservation designed to complement existing programs and to expand educational opportunities. The aim of the program will be to provide students with a solid educational base and practical training.
