Behind the scenes
OBJECT ROTATION: AN ESSENTIAL CONSERVATION TOOL
In 2010, we inaugurated our permanent exhibition, History and Memory. How does it affect the artefacts when an exhibition is presented to the public for 10 years? What is the meaning and purpose of a “rotation” in a museum?
Learn more about this essential tool and what goes on behind the scenes in a museum in this article by Guislaine Lemay, Curator, Material Culture.
