Author David Saunders, former keeper of conservation and scientific research at the British Museum, explores how to balance the conflicting goals of visibility and preservation under a variety of conditions. Beginning with the science of how light, color, and vision function and interact, he proceeds to offer detailed studies of the impact of light on a wide range of objects, including paintings, manuscripts, textiles, bone, leather, and plastics. With analyses of the effects of light on visibility and deterioration, Museum Lighting provides practical information to assist curators, conservators, and other museum professionals in making critical decisions about the display and preservation of objects in their collections.

"Current museum lighting practice is governed by conservation concerns, the aim being to minimize light exposure of exhibits to protect them from degradation. [This book] puts emphasis upon providing excellent visual presentation of the exhibits, and achieving this with light exposure ... [It] explores different approaches to museum lighting; examines visual responses to light and the damage caused by light exposure; reviews daylighting and electric lighting installations and how they are controlled; leads to practical procedures for designing, installing and maintaining effective museum lighting; [and] is illustrated with copious examples of daylighting and electric lighting installations fro museums around the world"--Page 4 of cover.

"From Darkness to Light explores from a variety of angles the subject of museum lighting in exhibition spaces in America, Japan, and Western Europe throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Written by an array of international experts, these collected essays gather perspectives from a diverse range of cultural sensibilities. From sensitive discussions of Tintoretto's unique approach to the play of light and darkness as exhibited in the Scuola Grande di San Rocco in Venice, to the development of museum lighting as part of Japanese artistic self-fashioning, via the story of an epic American painting on tour, museum illumination in the work of Henry James, and lighting alterations at Chatsworth (to name only a few topics) this book is a treasure trove of illuminating contributions. The collection is at once a refreshing insight for the enthusiastic museum-goer, who is brought to an awareness of the exhibit in its immediate environment, and a wide-ranging scholarly compendium for the professional who seeks to proceed in their academic or curatorial work with a more enlightened sense of the lighted space."--Publisher's website.

Museum conservators and the like are well acquainted with the fact that some types of museum exhibits are susceptible to damage caused by exposure to light. Currently, such unwanted effects are often mitigated by avoiding non-visible light (UV and IR), limiting light level and restricting exposure duration. This approach can only go so far. The work in the Museum Lighting Protocol Project seeks to extend recommendations to include the potential of incident light in the visible spectrum to stimulate the sense of brightness (illuminance) and balance that against its potential to cause damage (irradiance). Instead of providing light with a smooth curve throughout the visual spectrum like current incandescent filament light sources, the authors propose a lighting methodology using illumination from only three spectral bands. This three-band source would have enough visual satisfaction as the incandescent sources while providing significantly less irradiance. Documentation on the theory, artwork and tests are all included in the report. There were various chromatic and achromatic works studied in differing color temperatures, both in the incandescent source and the experimental three-band source. The overall result is that for the same illumination and visual satisfaction, the three-band source had very significant lowering of the irradiance incident on the exhibited works. Subjects were questioned about any apparent differences they noticed, generally reporting only slight differences. The nature and import of the differences is discussed and the authors conclude that a practical light source for museums that utilized similar three-band light sources could be developed with equal visual satisfaction at equal illuminances. This would expose the exhibits to significantly less irradiance and thus reduce the rate of degradation of the objects on display.

Dynamic artificial light in museums In galleries and museums, one’s perception of art, space, and atmosphere is largely determined by lighting. But which light settings should art and museum experts and exhibition designers choose, and on what basis are those choices made? Pioneering LED technologies make customized lighting scenarios possible, turning artificial light into an interactive material in museum architecture – not only in terms of design practice, but also in terms of real-time spatial experiences. Computer-controlled lighting technologies are breaking boundaries, allowing the individual to take full control of lighting design. Light Up explores the potential of dynamic artificial lighting technologies in museum architecture, offering new insights into the use of light in exhibition spaces. How LED technologies can be used to develop customized lighting scenarios Studies in the real context of art institutions as well as programming of interactive light simulations Documents the research project “White Cube Teleporter”
