Museum of Fine Arts, Houston

The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, will conduct a detailed condition survey of approximately 175 works of art dating from the 20th and 21st centuries. The primary objectives of the project are to examine, assess, and develop a condition report for each work of art. The results of the survey will determine treatment priorities and appropriate collection housing and storage, as well as other collection care recommendations such as installation procedures and transit safety. In addition, the survey will help the museum design new facilities for exhibition and storage, plan for future exhibitions, and develop appropriate facilities and programs for a new museum building devoted to modern and contemporary art.
