Atelier Ferreyros is accessible to other restorers who would like to use our restoration equipment:
- Conservation Workshops (e.g. I hosted Ms. Jill Whitten, from Houston, Texas, USA, to give a course on the recent varnishing materials of René de la Rie, and varnishing techniques.)
- Hot table for support treatment
- Mitka table (suction table)
- Strong lamp for retouching (500 Watts)
- Large open space with wide tables for big paintings
I train some young students that are looking for an apprenticeship in various workshops in Paris, required by their school, during their school periods.
Here, they can learn about modern techniques for retouching and varnishing that they may not learn in school due to lack of resources or accessibility, like for example the modern varnishes discovered by Mr. René de la Rie, Head of the Chemical department of the National Gallery of Washington D.C, USA).
