Abstract

A three-year interdisciplinary project entitled FU-TURAHMA – From Futurism to Classicism (1910–22). Art History, Painting Techniques and Material Anal-ysis unites art historians, conservators, chemists and physicists and aims to explore the creative process, materials and conservation. A combination of in-situ imaging, non-invasive analysis of paintings using mobile instrumentation, the study of reference materials from artists’ archives and historical pigments, and the careful assessment of primary sources forms the basis of the project. As a case study of the methodology employed, selected results from a wide non-invasive campaign of measurements performed within the present project at the Benvenuti-Grubicy Collection (Fondazione Livorno, Italy) are shown. To facilitate research and exchange, an online resource has been created for sharing data among partners and to disseminate results to the community in the future.
