Historic Portuguese ceramic tiles on walls at the Museum of Sacred Art in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. Damage to the tiles is the result of salt coming up from groundwater through the building structure and out between seams in the tiles. Loss to the tile glazing is caused by salt crystallization pressures. At the Museum of Sacred Art, environmental management strategies were developed that integrated the conservation needs of both the historic structure and the collection. Photo: James Druzik.
Managing the Environment: An Update on Preventive Conservation
Recognition of the importance of preventive conservation is growing in virtually every region of the globe. Defined as the management of the environmental conditions under which collections are housed and used, preventive conservation has advanced in both research and application. The older model of conservation—in which the conservator is perceived as the primary, if not the sole, guardian of a collection--is gradually being replaced by long-term preventive conservation strategies in which conservators share responsibility with others.
Preventive Conservation: A Discussion
Catherine Antomarchi of the International Center for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property in Rome, Colin Pearson of the Cultural Heritage Research Center at the University of Canberra in Australia, and Luiz Souza of the Centro de Conservação e Restauração de Bens Culturais Móveis in Brazil, sat down with the GCI’s Kathleen Dardes and Jeffrey Levin to discuss efforts to promote preventive conservation.
Funding Conservation: The Getty Grant Program at Work
The Grant Program, the philanthropic arm of the Getty Trust, provides financial support for projects in conservation. While grants are awarded for different types of conservation activities, a unifying element is the inclusion of educational opportunities and the work's potential to make a significant contribution to the field. Recently funded projects include medieval villages in the Caucasus Mountains of Georgia, the last remaining cathedral in Ghana made of earthen materials, internships for Latin American conservators, and Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater.
Values and Heritage Conservation
Sites, objects, and buildings acquire significance as cultural heritage because of the values ascribed to them—be they historical, aesthetic, social, or others. To ensure that conservation initiatives consider social as well as physical conditions, values need to be analyzed through a participatory process that promotes sustainable conservation by engaging communities in the preservation of their own heritage.

A Note From the Director
World Heritage: Shield or Target?
In the latter part of the 20th century, a new consensus on the importance of cultural heritage and the necessity to protect it—prompted in part by the two world wars, unprecedented in their devastation—led to the creation of international agreements designed to shield cultural heritage. But, as the destruction by the ruling Taliban of two giant fifth-century statues of Buddha in Afghanistan may demonstrate, the notion of world heritage, intended as a shield, may instead, at times, act as a target.
Cultural Heritage and International Law: A Conversation with Lyndel Prott
The director of UNESCO's Division of Cultural Heritage discusses the impact of a half-century of international law on protecting cultural heritage from damage or destruction amid armed conflict.
The China Principles
China's 3,000 years of unbroken civilization have created a vast range of immovable heritage. But rampant economic development and the rapidly expanding tourism industries pose threats to this heritage. In 1997 the Getty Conservation Institute and the State Administration for Cultural Heritage in China began a collaborative program with the Australian Heritage Commission to develop a set of principles to guide the conservation and management of cultural sites in China.
Values and Site Management: New Case Studies
Recently the heritage field has seen the introduction of values-based management, which takes a holistic view of a site. Its objective is always the conservation and communication of the values that make a particular site significant. In collaboration with the Australian Heritage Commission, English Heritage, Parks Canada, and the U.S. National Park Service, the GCI has initiated the development of a series of case studies that can serve as examples of how values-driven site management can be interpreted, employed, and evaluated.

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.

Bradley, left, and Lieutenant General George S. Patton Jr., right). During the war, the United States created the Monuments, Fine Arts, and Archives (MFAA) teams—composed of cultural heritage experts—in order to protect and salvage cultural sites in the war zone. Toward the end of the war, MFAA teams were given the monumental task of cataloguing and returning the thousands of looted objects to their countries of origin.

Cultural Property at War: Protecting Heritage during Armed Conflict
Looking to the past, we can learn much from the ways in which cultural heritage professionals have helped save cultural property at risk in war zones. Looking ahead, cultural heritage organizations and professionals should combine their efforts under the banner of the International Committee of the Blue Shield and its affliated organizations—the most effective mechanism for the protection of cultural property during armed conflict.
Putting Heritage on the Map: A Discussion about Disaster Management and Cultural Heritage
Rohit Jigyasu, a conservation architect and risk management consultant based in India; Jane Long, vice president for emergency programs at Heritage Preservation in Washington DC; and Ben Wisner, a researcher associated with Oberlin College, the London School of Economics, and University College London, talk with Jeffrey Levin, editor of Conservation, The GCI Newsletter.
Rethinking Crescent City Culture: New Orleans Two and a Half Years Later
In New Orleans, a number of cultural institutions were severely damaged by the flooding and high winds of Hurricane Katrina. After the hurricane, all cultural institutions, physically damaged or not, were faced with a New Orleans that had a different demographic and far less tourism than the pre-Katrina city. The survival of the city's cultural and historic institutions will depend upon their ability to adapt.
"Where's the Fire?": Teamwork for Integrated Emergency Management
The GCI has long worked to develop practical solutions to the technical problems faced in protecting collections and buildings in emergency situations. Since 2004 the Institute has collaborated with ICOM and ICCROM on an education initiative focused on safeguarding museums from the effects of natural and human-caused emergencies.
