FORWARD 
The 6th edition of the APLAR conference dedicated to the use of laser 
technology in the field conservation and restoration of art works, will take 
place in Florence, Italy at the Auditorium of Sant’Apollonia, in via S. Gallo 
25. 
Previous editions were held in Vicenza (16th June 2007), Siena (4th July 2008), 
Bari (18th -19th June 2010), Rome (14th -15th June 2012) and the Vatican City 
(18th -19th September 2014).
In the wake of previous editions, the 2017 conference aims to share the many 
experiences undertaken by Italian and international professionals using laser 
technology in the field of art conservation. As the subtitle of the conference 
reads – using lasers in combination with…….the organizers of the 2017 
conference wish to create a platform where professionals can discuss the 
integration of laser technology with standard intervention protocols. Our aim 
is to explore lasers not just as an instrument per se but as a tool used in 
combination with other traditional and or innovative conservation techniques 
and analyse how lasers are geared to achieve results which match the 
conservator’s technical and ethical needs. 
Apart from understanding lasers as a useful tool, we wish to explore how the 
scientific community implements laser technology as a diagnostic and analytical 
device to corroborate the conservators works. We wish to share experiences and 
case studies where laser technology is used with intelligence to achieve 
decisive results.    
The two-day conference will conclude with a discussion panel that will explore 
the topics of the conference in terms of project development, surveys and 
monitoring interventions and results.
