International Academic Projects has offered short specialised training courses on the theory and practice of the conservation of art and antiquities, technical art issues and museum studies for over 30 years.
Over the years more than 100 different topics in the fields of conservation, technical art history, archaeology and museum studies have been taught by numerous experts. In this archive we have listed for you courses we have offered/will still offer in the future.
You can look through a selection of courses we have offered in London, the UK and all over the world. These courses are one-day to one-week long. If you are interested in any of the topics feel free to contact us.
We have set up IAP Virtual to showcase our existing online offerings including our new initiatives of Zoom seminars for closed groups plus question and answer sessions with IAP course tutors and associates. You can view the courses we have offered in 2020 here.
In October 2017 IAP organised in association with Tate the conference ‘Gels in Conservation’. We uploaded the videos of the conference presentations, which can be watched here. The conference proceedings are published as printed pre-prints available here.
Pigment ID using Polarised Light Microscopy is a suite of files which was conceived and produced by the late Peter Mactaggart to help those using the polarising microscope to identify classic pigments. It provides information on traditional pigments and a key to help in their identification when viewed with a polarising microscope.
We have assembled some of the resources referenced in seminars and courses.
