Performing Arts and Visual Arts Studies held a Sharing Session with Dr. Nicole Tse from the Grimwade Center for Cultural Materials Conservation Faculty of Arts, University of Melbourne, Friday (7/7) in the UGM Postgraduate School Seminar Room. The Sharing Session was guided by Dr. Gea O.F. Parikesit and attended by all lecturers of the PSPSR UGM study program and students.
The topics discussed in this Sharing Session were about university life at the University of Melbourne and conservation issues. In his discussion, Dr. Nicole Tse started with a statement that art attribution is one of the problems in the world of conservation. Lots of people – especially artists and art consumers – buy works of art that are not original, aka fakes.
