Lasers in the Conservation of Artworks ; LACONA VI Proceedings, Vienna, Austria, Sept. 21--25, 2005

In 1995 Professor Costas Fotakis brought together restorers and scientists to discuss the potential of lasers in art conservation. Since then the field of "Lasers in the Conservation of Artworks" has gained enormously in importance. Nowadays restorers and laser scientists work close together in order to develop new fields of applications during the last years.
