Is it over?
Hélia Marçal is Lecturer in History of Art, Materials and Technology. She was the Fellow in Contemporary Art Conservation and Research of the research project Reshaping the Collectible: When Artworks Live
in the Museum, at Tate, London (2018-2020). She is the Coordinator of the Working Group on Theory, History, and Ethics of Conservation of the Committee for Conservation of the International Council of Museums (ICOM-CC) since 2016.
Her current research interests are positioned within feminist new materialisms, material histories of activist artworks, ethics and performativity of cultural heritage, the conservation of time-based media and performance
art, and both the materiality of contemporary art and the ways it is positioned and negotiated by museum, heritage, and conservation practices.
