J. Rayner, J. M. Kosek, B. Christensen (Hrsg.): Art on Paper, 2005

Mounting and housing of works of art on paper have always had an important influence on both the survival and the appreciation of the work. Many dangers if a physical, biological and chemical nature await unprotected works of art on paper and specialist mounting provides the primary way of safeguarding them. Also, since the way in which works are presented to the public affects their perception of them, mounting of works of art can contribute significantly to the success or failure of an exhibition.
A variety of problems, solutions, past practice and future developments in the mounting, storage and display of artworks on paper are considered in this volume. It includes the significance of mounting in the historical study of prints and drawings, the preventive care of paper artifacts, their aesthetic presentation and the management of paper collections.
