Use of magnetic sheets in vertical deformation treatment of textile supports of contemporary paintings

Abstract

The practice developed during a conservation and restoration intervention does not always follow common or traditional standards, whether due to technical limitations, or space constraints related to the size of the works, or by the material requirements that the works themselves can present. In the light of various particularities and needs, research was initiated into the use of harmless and satisfactory methods in the occasional treatment of deformations of the support of contemporary pictorial works, using magnetic sheets. In its use, different valences were evaluated, such as the control in the iteration of the work, the effectiveness and control of humidity and time during the performance of the treatments, and the results obtained. This article will reflect on the process developed with the application of four case studies, presenting the advantages and disadvantages in the use of this method.
