Florence has the greatest number of artworks and restorers in the world. It has long been known as a Capital of Culture and a City of Art and Restoration and it is home to the largest percentage of organisations, companies, publishing houses, schools and restorers in Italy and in the world.
Scholars and technicians from all over the world come to Florence in search of an “added value” in the field of restoration and of a chance to share their experiences, plan future exchanges and come into contact with companies and people working in the sector in order to improve their skills and their knowledge in this field.
The Institute offers to these professional people its thirty year experience and its best professional resources in order to allow them to reach their specialised goals. The Institute will activate in this sense, a series of specialised, intensive courses in the field of conservation, restoration and evaluation of cultural heritage. In each of these courses it will be accurately mixed new and traditional materials, old and innovative and experimental techniques.
All the courses have a duration of one-four weeks and they will be structured in a format of 20-120 hours. All the specialised sessions will be delivered by the most important and expert lecturers coming from the Institute and from its partners (diagnostic and research centres, university departments etc.).
In order to facilitate a better relationship lecturer/student, the Institute accepts only 10 participants a course.
It is no required any study title to be admitted at these courses but anyway, the Institute reserves the right to examine applicant's study titles or professionalexperiences, before confirming the admission at the selected course.
The courses are scheduled when the laboratories are free from the academic year sessions or when the academic year students are involved in their practical internship sessions: normally during the summer (July and September), but sometimes also in the months reserved to internships and exams (April, May and June).
Amongst the various techniques introductory courses you can find also the 3 months format structured in 1- 3 afternoons a week and scheduled in the months of February, April and in October December. All the topics are treated in these courses in order to meet student's different needs taking into consideration their various previous experiences gained in other training activities.
