Conservation: Lighting and Climate at Musée Picasso

How the museum cares for modern materials—light exposure, humidity, and best practices for reversible conservation.

Soft, controlled lighting across gallery walls

Conservation balances visibility with stability: limit lux levels, avoid UV, stabilize temperature/humidity. Assemblage and papers demand gentle methods.


📈 Targets

  • Lux: 50–150 for sensitive works
  • RH: 45–55%
  • Temp: 20–22°C

$$ \text{Fading Risk} propto L \times t quad L=\text{lux},\ t=\text{exposure time} $$

Reversibility is a core ethic—interventions should be undoable.

Como flâneur amante del arte en París, creé esta guía para ayudar a conectar con la obra de Picasso — de los cuadernos y la cerámica a los lienzos y esculturas más audaces.
