According to an article by Hakim Bishara published in the November 12,2020 issue of Hyperallergic (“Another Botched Restoration Revealed in Spain”), another restoration disaster has taken place in Spain. This time, the victim was a sculpture on an early 20th-century building in Palencia whose broken head was replaced with a cartoonish one. Hearing the many stories of botched restorations in Spain, one finds it hard to believe that more bad restorations are carried out in a small country like Spain than anywhere else in the world. Is it possible that these disastrous failed restorations are brought to the press’ attention because the regulation of the field is of great importance to the Spanish Professional Association of Restorers and Conservators and the publication of horror stories may lead to public demand for that? #conservationinthenews
