Samenvatting
This study questions conventional assumptions about what constitutes artmaking, and who is involved in it, by focusing on relationships like contacts between artists, paintmakers conservators, chemists and other experts on art-technical matters. The aim is to stimulate further reflection on participants in the 'service areas of art' and through this to better understand their reciprocally constitutive relationships with the artistic phenomena they help produce and preserve. The development of a group of new art materials in 20th-century North America, synthetic painting media, provides a point of access for observing these relationships.
