Visitors will gain an understanding of conservation and restoration at a guided tour in a city museum this week

Conserving the collection is an ongoing exhibition at the CSMVS
Imagine piecing together an 800-year-old sculpture that has been broken into 11 pieces. Conservator Madniya Mozawala certainly can. Harihara, a sculpture from the late Chalukyan period, stands as a witness to your imagination at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya. And it isn't too late to go catch a glimpse of it.
Part of an exhibition titled Conserving the Collection, it's on display till May 15. This exhibition showcases objects that have been treated under the ConservArte: Citi-CSMVS Art Conservation Project, explaining the practice of art conservation and restoration. But this Wednesday, Mozawala and her colleague Nivedita Dhage will let visitors in on their process of being art doctors in a way through a guided tour — sharing stories of how such objects of historical importance are given a new life.
