PRACTICAL: Protection, Presentation and Preservation

Artwork by Kate MccGwire 

Explore why framing matters in contemporary art with Dan Edwards & Jamie Holman from presentation to preservation.

Join us for an in-depth conversation exploring Protection, Presentation and Preservation – the Importance of Finish in Contemporary Practice. This talk will examine how the final stages of an artwork, from framing and materials to display and long-term care, play a vital role in how work is seen, valued, and maintained.

Presented by Dan Edwards, Director at Darbyshire and artist Jamie Holman, the session will delve into the often-overlooked decisions that shape an artwork’s life beyond the studio. Whether you're an artist, curator or collector, this talk offers valuable insights into the practical and conceptual significance of finish in contemporary art.
