Strategic Approaches to Safeguarding Cultural Heritage: Art-Risk Models and Tools

Laboratorio di Scienze per la Conservazione (edificio Epsilon, piano terra) and Zoom

Abstract:
Art-Risk Models and Tools are Decision-Making methodologies and protocols to
evaluate risk in cultural heritage environments and respond to emergencies. Art-Risk Decision-Making toolset comprises four digital tools: Art-risk 1 Atlas®, Art-risk 5.0 Earth Inspector®, Art-Risk 3.0®, and Art-Risk 4 Mission Track®. These tools involve the use
of matrices and indexes to assess vulnerability, the application of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and satellite images for hazard mapping, the integration of multicriteria analysis techniques and fuzzy logic to incorporate the human perspective into risk assessment, and the use of communication tools to enhance emergency response. During the conference, different cases involving distinct Art-Risk application in historic cities and monuments will be analysed.                                       

Bio Sketch
The research and teaching experience developed in the last years has been focused on the diagnosis, preservation and conservation of Cultural Heritage (CH) since a Chemist point of view. We have collaborated with museums and cultural institutions, such as the Valencian Institute of Conservation and Restoration (IVCR + i), Andalusian Institute of Historical
Heritage (IAPH), Cádiz Museum, Écija Museum, Science Museum of Granada, etc.
Additionally, I have developed works related to CH issues in several countries, i.e., the United Kingdom; Belgium, Italy, Romania, Cuba, Peru, Colombia, Panama, etc. I have participated in 25 national and international projects, contracts and agreements funded by the Union European, Ministry, Autonomous Communities and public/private organizations/ companies. I have been the head researcher in 15 of those projects, highlighting a Project of Excellence of the Junta de Andalucía (RIVUPH), Two RETOS
project of the Government of Spain (ART-RIK & FENIX), two projects of Junta Andalucía (consejería Vivienda) for international cooperation and Andalusian cataloguing of CH (Murallas), a national project of proof of concept, a regional project of international Campus, and a recent European project of JPI (ATLTAS). All these project are focus on conservation, risks and vulnerability of CH. I have worked in the University of Amberes (Belgium) as assistant lecturer (12 months), invited professor (6 months) at the University of Oxford (UK), and invited researcher (12 months) at ENEA, Frascati (Roma, Italy). Editor of 1 international book and three special issue of journals.
