Preventive conservation of photography collection The Museum of Applied Art

Since 2018, I'm involved on a project preventive conservation and condition reporting of the photography collection of  The Museum of Applied arts in Belgrade with head collection curator Jelena Perać. It was my gratitude to work on photographs by Milan Jovanović and surrealist photographs, as well as a collection of designs for utility objects drawn by Anastas Jovanović, one of the pioneers of Serbian applied arts and design, stand out as artistically significant units. 
The collection keeps photo albums and photographic equipment, book illustration equipment, graphics, miniature portraits, drawings and icons. 
These documentary photos from my house lab are made my dear friend Aleksandar Carević little before lockdowns in Serbia due the COVID-19 pandemic. 
More photos of processes and texts will follow soon.
