Abstract
Our master thesis carried out in the Portuguese Catholic University about conservation and painting techniques came to light from our intention of developing a project in the area of modern and contemporary art. Nowdays, museums consider the documentation and registration of artwork a useful tool towards its conservation and safety. The Manuel Brito painting collection managed by Centro de Arte in Algés is a very important one in the context of Portuguese contemporary art. Our main objective was to give a contribution in order its safeguard considering the possibility of an applied research. Accordingly, we made the collection’s inventory and the evaluation of its conservation condition.
