Sommario: The objective of EU-ARTECH is to achieve a permanent interoperability among the participating infrastructures, establishing cooperation and exchange of knowledge with the other infrastructures in the field, in the perspective of structuring a common European research area. The activity programme of the five-year EU-ARTECH project was articulated in:

1-Networking
Networking is devoted to promote exchange of knowledge, to diffuse good practices in conservation and to define common work-parameters to improve the comparability of results and quality of research.

2-Access

I - AGLAE, a single high-level infrastructure located in Paris at the Flore Pavilion of the Palais du Louvre (CNRS-C2RMF), where non-destructive elemental composition studies are carried out with high sensitivity and precision, in a unique environment of art-historians, restorers and scientists having a large expertise on artwork studies and conservation;

II - MOLAB, a unified group of joint infrastructures, located in Firenze and Perugia (UNI-PG, CNR-ICVBC, OPD, INOA), where a unique collection of portable instrumentations, together with competences on methods and materials, is available for in-situ non-destructive measurements. The access is devoted to artwork studies and/or evaluation of conservation-restoration methods, directly in a museum room, or on the scaffold of a restoration workshop or in an archaeological site.

3-Joint research activities

Joint research activities are devoted to improve the performances of the participating infrastructures and the quality of the access offered to the scientific community.
