Title
From Flying Flags to Museum Flags: A Case Study in Using Minimally Invasive Preservation Techniques to Allow Maximum Flexibility in Display and Interpretation
Abstract
The study of flags is a complex and specialized discipline. Accordingly, any conservation strategy challenges the conservators to first educate themselves in the history, customs and relevance of flags. The author's research in the field led to a question about the semantic implications of presenting a “flag” in a static form on display at CMH. This paper will focus on the significance and relevance of museum artifacts and how they retain, diminish or change their meaning through time and context.
