European Day of Conservation-Restoration

Cristóbal Balenciaga Museoa presents, within the framework of the European Day of Conservation-Restoration, a unique opportunity to discover the protocols established by the Collections Department.

The exhibition “Cristóbal Balenciaga. Fashion and Heritage. Contexts” offers various parallel discourses throughout its six galleries. Alongside the chronological discourse, the discourse lending context to each moment and the one related to research and exhibitions, yet another discourse is highlighted through its mise en scène, the objective of which is to lend value to the museum work. This work, carried out behind the scenes, is relatively unknown to the general public and yet it constitutes the basis of knowledge in relation to the pieces exhibited and the discourses narrated.

Cristóbal Balenciaga Museoa presents, within the framework of the European Day of Conservation-Restoration, a unique opportunity to discover the protocols established by the Collections Department with a view to conservation, restoration and exhibition, reinforcing the content of the space open for this purpose within the exhibition. The curator-restorer will explain the processes carried out from the moment a piece arrives at the museum until being put on display in the showcases.
