INCCA Talk: From Bits to Ink

INCCA

Preserving and Printing Digital-Based Photographic Artworks

INCCA is pleased to invite you to an upcoming INCCA Talk, where conservator Monica Marchesi, will present a newly developed guidelines titled “From Bits to Ink – Preserving and Printing Digital-Based Photographic Works” aimed at supporting the conservation community.As more artists deliver their photographic works in digital formats, museums increasingly acquire digital files rather than physical prints—along with the rights to produce them for exhibition. This shift introduces complex challenges related to acquisition, conservation, authorship, and material authenticity.Developed as part of the NWO Museum Grant project, “<a href="https://www.nwo.nl/en/projects/33322012" title="https://www.nwo.nl/en/projects/33322012" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Print on Demand. Printing Digital Artworks through a Collaborative Mode of Production</a>”, this guideline offers clear and accessible recommendations for museum professionals—particularly those responsible for the acquisition, conservation and presentation of digital-based photography. It provides a structured approach to managing the translation of a digital file into a photographic print, ensuring thoughtful decision-making from acquisition to (re)printing.Based on extensive interviews and collaborative discussions with a wide range of professionals—artists, conservators, curators, registrars, and printing experts—this document reflects a shared, cross-disciplinary effort to address the evolving needs of contemporary photographic conservation.Learn more about this Talk <a href="https://incca.org/events/incca-talk-bits-ink-preserving-and-printing-digital-based-photographic-artworks" title="https://incca.org/events/incca-talk-bits-ink-preserving-and-printing-digital-based-photographic-artworks" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">here</a>.
