To identify risks comprehensively,

To estimate correctly their magnitude and associated

uncertainties

To devise cost-effective solutions to treat those risks

To communicate clearly with stakeholders throughout this

process

To repeat the process regularlyestaw

Agnes Brokerhof (Collection Risk Management – The Next frontier; presented at the CMA Cultural Property

Protection Conference, Ottawa, 2006)

‘much of the usefulness of cultural property risk assessment arises from forcing careful thinking about how values are impacted by change’

● How was the work produced? Which technologies are involved in the production process and why?

● What will be provided to Tate as part of the acquisition? Are these the best elements for preservation?

● Is there a need for any specific hardware?

● What are the display requirements (for instance gallery dimensions, projection dimensions, wall colours)?

Rafael Lozano Hemmer Subtitled Public (2005)

Subtitled Public consists of an empty exhibition space where visitors are detected by a computerised surveillance system. When people enter the space, the system generates a subtitle for each person and projects it onto him or her: the subtitle is chosen at random from a list of all the verbs conjugated in the third person. The only way of getting rid of a subtitle is to touch another person, which leads to the two subtitles being exchanged. The project exists in Spanish, English and French versions.
