Re-spect is about the re-thinking of the figure, role and therefore training of the conservator in the XXI century. Despite the eventual focus of their training, the convergence of many different competences (ranging from scientific to technological and artistic) into one single professional profile represents an opportunity for future answers that our world, if not just its cultural heritage, is demanding more and more.
Re-spect is about the fostering of a culture of care. A common attitude towards both the arts and the environment; to embrace the worlds of conservation & restoration into one common vision, one similar approach, providing an opportunity to express the outcomes of interventions, which are different in scale and specific technologies, with common words. So that re-touching lacunas of a worn out painting would be the same as re-planting the shores of a damaged estuary; both re-cover the readability and the authenticity of a phenomenon, whether it is artistic or natural.
Re-spect is also about the fostering of a better understanding of the social, cultural and economic benefits of conservative interventions; what had also been referred to as “re-economy”. That is to say to provide decision makers, politicians and designers as well as professionals with tools and methods to better understand and interpret such positive C&R results and incorporate them into local economies.
