As "the" museum-recommended conservation lab in the area, clients in Texas and surrounding States hire us because we offer science-based advice on how to protect their paintings, avoid accidental damage and delay the negative effects of the ageing process; we treat and conserve the paintings using the least invasive and the most up-to-date techniques and materials in a well-equipped lab with full security; we restore severely damaged paintings using reversible materials and minimal intervention; we contribute to maintain or increase the value of their paintings with targeted documentation and in-depth research. Most of our clients are recurring customers and trusts us with their art collections. At Arte Viva, meaning Living Art, we believe in making art a part of everyday life, while guiding people who are entrusted with it to protect it and preserve for future generations its artistic, historic and monetary values.
