Guided view of the Contemporary Art Restoration Laboratory and the JRC Scientific Laboratories, as part of the 2023 Edition of Arte(`) Scienza, the national exhibition organised by the Italian Association of Archaeometry (AIAr), which aims to be an opportunity to reflect on the vital relationship between cultural heritage and scientific techniques in the study of archaeological sites and finds, in the reconstruction of the historical environment, in the diagnostics of works of art, in the conservation of our artistic and cultural heritage.
