THE CONSERVATIONS AND EXHIBITION OF MATERIALS

WHY THIS MODULE?

The objects kept in a fashion archive are many and varied: from clothes to accessories, from textile designs to glossy prints, from photographs to colour folders.

For this reason, the conservation materials require specific rules and indications to be restored, preserved and displayed in order to prolong their life, The European Union has a duty to ensure that the Community’s efforts are not only directed towards the development of the Mediterranean region, but also towards the promotion of its cultural heritage.

Corporate memory (heritage) is a tool that fashion brands use more and more to position themselves in the eyes of the public. The historical archive, if well managed and preserved, can be the basis from which to plan and organize events and new exhibitions.

These are the topics of the third appointment of F.FRI’s Fashion Archives course, which will allow students to familiarize themselves with the daily needs and practices of strategic that characterize the activity of a historical archive of luxury and cultural institutions that have dissemination and conservation purposes.
