Conservation
Conservation plays a crucial role in the stewardship of Public Art UHS’ permanent collection and artworks in our temporary exhibitions. Maintaining the integrity of the artworks and the artist’s intent for our visitors and for future generations is a fundamental part of our mission. Public Art UHS is committed to art restoration and annual maintenance by following a detailed conservation schedule and working with our team of expert art conservators.
