range of departments, including public programs, education, membership and development. However, the care and stewardship of art objects is her true love and for the past 10 years, she has manifested this passion by overseeing all aspects of registration and
exhibition management for moCa Cleveland as the museum’s Director of Exhibitions.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:#201F1E"> </span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:#201F1E">At moCa, Kate stewarded the planning and installation of nearly 100 exhibitions ranging from experimental sound and video to delicate works on paper and ceramics, and
from monumental site-specific sculptural installations in wood, metal, and shea butter to magnetized gourds. While Kate has devoted the past decade to contemporary art, her educational background is rooted in the history of decorative arts and design, and
it is this long-standing interest that drew her to ICA. Kate earned her M.A. from the Bard Graduate Center for Studies in the Decorative Arts, Design and Culture and her B.A. from Mary Washington College. She lives in Cleveland Heights with her husband and
5-year-old daughter. We are glad is part of the ICA team!</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Silver is a lustrous, warm metal that is produced in many alloy compositions and used to make a wide array of decorative objects. Silver can be gently dusted with soft
natural bristle brushes or soft cotton cloths. It can also be washed with mild detergent in warm water, then carefully rinsed and dried. Silver can also be safely polished with an inexpensive, natural, nontoxic polish mixture – one that is actually recommended
by conservators!</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Before attempting any cleaning, check to be sure your item is structurally sound and doesn’t have any original or later coatings or special surface treatments. If it
is sound and has no coatings or special surface treatments, you can dust, wash and even polish safely. The important thing to remember is that dusting, and even washing, silver can cause scratches on the surface of the metal so all of your cloths, tools, and
cleaning compounds need to be very clean and your efforts gentle. Do not use plastic scrubbing sponges; they are too aggressive and will badly scratch the surface of your silver.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Silver tarnish is a corrosion product that forms on the outermost layer of a silver object as a result of exposure to sulfur in the air. The sulfur comes from car exhaust,
industrial pollution, cigarette smoke, fires, rubber products like carpet pads, and sulfur-containing foods like eggs and avocados. The sulfur combines with silver ions and forms silver sulfide, which is black. When the silver sulfide layer is very thin it
can also appear grey, pink, blue, and brown in color.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black"> </span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">When we polish silver, we are physically or chemically (in the case of dips) removing the entire sulfide layer – so we are actually removing the outer surface of the
object. This is why conservators consider commercial silver polishing compounds or dips too aggressive. The first step should always be to wash the object. It is amazing what washing with a warm dilute detergent and water solution and soft cloth can do to
enhance appearance with very little loss to the object!</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">If we have to polish the surface, we use a slurry of precipitated calcium carbonate powder in a dilute detergent solution. Calcium carbonate is a common mineral found
in rocks, shells, bones, etc. Calcium carbonate is non-toxic and safe to ingest and is even found in dietary supplements. The precipitated form is produced in a special way so that all of the particles are the same size and have a smoother shape -- preventing
undue scratching. Despite this, extreme care is still needed to prevent scratching and unnecessary wear to the surface. After polishing, washing, and drying, silver that will not be used for eating and drinking can be waxed or coated with a special resin to
slow down and prevent the tarnishing process. These coatings work by excluding sulfur and other gaseous contaminants.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Silver can be stored in silver cloth, a special textile which is impregnated with compounds that absorb sulfur. Silver can also be stored in food-grade polyethylene bags
– never in cling wrap which will cause it to corrode! If padding is needed, acid-free tissue paper can be used.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

Since the piece is in an actively used public space, over time it suffered minor damages including small losses to the paint and ground layers, scuffs, and dark splatters. The piece was conserved on-site, and after treatment, it looked cared for, brighter,
and more vibrant.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

that the sculpture receive an overall cleaning, a protective application of wax, and an option to repair two areas of damage on the proper right side: a cracked and misaligned ear and two missing fingers. The Museum elected to have the sculpture cleaned and
waxed, and to repair the damaged ear, but they did not elect to repair the fingers based on curatorial research.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

about their presence, quality, and age spoke to her, and she purchased them. She hoped that ICA could tell her more about them.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Paintings conservator Wendy Partridge was able to identify one based on the inscription
<i>MP OY</i>, an abbreviation of the Greek <i>Mater Theos</i> or Mother of God. Director of Education Holly Witchey, with help from a local scholar, was able to identify the other as St. Nicolas. The St. Nicolas icon appeared to be painted in egg tempera with
possible oil glazes. The composition had many finely executed details, including the lines in the saint’s hair and beard and the embroidery pattern on the vestment. The Mother of God icon was executed in oil paint. Both appeared to date to at least the 19th
century and possibly earlier. </span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;color:black"> </span>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Icons are used in Eastern Orthodox Catholic cathedrals, churches, and private spaces across the globe to enhance sacred practices. Icons are not objects of worship, but
objects of veneration thought to provide a window to heaven and allow worshipers to focus their thoughts on the holy figure.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">In consultation with the collector, ICA worked to address mostly structural issues. The Mother of God panel consists of two wooden boards which had come detached from
one another. These were rejoined. Both objects had lifting paint that was secured, and both had a grime layer that was removed. </span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">After treatment, the collector continued to research the icons, talking to several priests at three different Orthodox churches. As a result, she found out that the inscription
carved into the back of the St. Nicolas icon was in Russian and contained names, a date, and a cost.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">ICA was given an opportunity to assist in the preservation of a large painting on cloth that was once part of a 19th century Tibetan
<i>thangka</i>, an object originally used for personal meditation or for instructing monastic students. Once the center part of a larger hanging, the panel depicts a standing male deity, The Celestial Man, in brilliant pigments, outlined in gold and surrounded
by roundels depicting other deities and Buddhist narratives. </span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">The condition assessment confirmed that the panel had been once part of worship practice. Repeated rolling and unrolling had created undulations in the painted “window,”
and the cotton ground was stained from water damage, possibly from hanging on a damp wall. The mineral paint pigments were powdering and stitch holes around the borders of the image marked now-lost textile borders.
</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Although they are often found in Western collections where they are sometimes considered cultural works of art, thangkas are not only paintings. They are complex constructions
with textile mountings that are important to their religious use. Much of its artistic intent is lost when they are deconstructed and the backing, brocaded fabric frame, cover, and scroll dowels discarded. Preserving the cultural and religious aspects of the
painting was important while planning treatment, but it was equally important not to attempt restoration of any missing elements that would misinform its original use or present the painting in a non-Tibetan aesthetic.
</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Stable areas of paint and burnished areas of pigment were gently surface-cleaned then consolidated. After treatment, the panel was placed between two sheets of cotton
blotter paper and lightly weighted for an extended period to reduce the deleterious effects caused by the distortions of repeated rolling.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">To mimic the sewn tensions of the original construction, narrow strip-linings of cotton muslin were hand sewn to the edges of the panel’s reverse. A transparent green
polyester filament was used for sewing, with running stitches passing through existing needle holes made during the previous mounting. The ends of the strips were overlapped rather than mitered, to reduce bulk.
</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">A support board was prepared for a vertical display of the painting. Panels of fluted polypropylene board were padded with a layer of archival cotton batting then covered
with a plain-weave cotton similar in structure to the ground cloth, providing a neutral, non-decorative background for the image.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">A conservation adhesive and hand sewing were used to secure the edges of the painting to the support board. To allow the painted canvas to expand and adjust to seasonal
environmental changes, the lower muslin strip was loosely secured to the mount with a horizontal row of tacking stitches. All conservation work was designed to be safely reversed should this be desirable in the future.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

lined this ICA study collection painting using BEVA 371 and a specialized heated vacuum table --a process once commonly used to stabilize the fabric support of paintings. The process is not often used today. After lining the canvas, Lily reversed the process
and she and ICA's Paintings conservators noted the changes caused by the process.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#403F42"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
