NEDCC Hosts Russian Photograph Conservator for 6-Week Internship The Northeast Document Conservation Center has been awarded a grant from the Trust for Mutual Understanding to support a 6-week Advanced Photograph Conservation Internship. The 2017 intern will be Anna Aseeva, a photograph conservator at the ROSPHOTO State Russian Museum and Exhibition Centre in Saint Petersburg, Russia. ROSPHOTO is the principal institution to which Russian museums go for advice, assistance, and training on researching, handling, and preserving photograph collections. ROSPHOTO cares for its own photograph collection, but also conserves collections belonging to other museums and archives, which lack the in-house expertise to treat photographs. Like NEDCC, ROSPHOTO also provides workshops for museum archivists and conservators.
Anna will be the seventh advanced intern participating in the program, and the Center has hosted professionals from Bulgaria, Croatia, Macedonia, Hungary, and Poland.
