Publisher's Review
From the ingredients of paint to the use of tools, techniques, and preservation of artwork.
Because works of art must be preserved for a long time, the materials and methods of use are especially important.
Without knowledge of the chemical and physical changes that occur between materials during the creation of a work, it is impossible to preserve the work for a long time, let alone freely use expressive techniques.
For example, when painting with oil paint, if you spray water on the back of the canvas and the paint comes off later, or if you paint with sulfur-based paint next to a kerosene stove and the painting turns black, these are accidents that occur due to lack of knowledge about art materials.
This book explains the chemical properties and usage of art materials, which are difficult to understand without chemical experiments, and in particular, the problems that can easily occur during use, such as discoloration, fading, and cracking, with specific examples to prevent such accidents in advance, so that even non-experts can easily understand and use them.
Especially in modern art, there is a trend to use various materials that go beyond existing concepts, and with the development of materials and subject matter, new attempts are also active, making knowledge of materials more urgent.
