Handling Paintings


An artist’s painting is not only made up of many layers of oil paint, it is made up of multiple materials like wood, paper, varnish, etc. Around 40 % of artworks like these are rudely damaged due to improper handling techniques and extreme conditions of storage in Abu Dhabi.

When paintings are subject to environmental factors like sunlight, artificial light, framing defects, changes in humidity and temperature or even inappropriate handling, any of the materials part of this piece of artwork can result in an overall change in the artists work. Sometimes we ourselves tend to notice and recognize deterioration in artwork. This deterioration takes the form of cracks, faded colours, worn out wood, holes in the paintings and torn canvases. For dreadful reasons like these people go looking for a storage facility in UAE.

Setting the everyday reasons aside, we sometimes require self-storage in Abu Dhabi to keep our paintings safe on an occasional basis. Proper packaging and handling is also required whenever they have to be transported from one location to the other. Even if you have bestowed the responsibility of transporting your paintings to a moving service in Abu Dhabi, be sure to check if they are packing your artwork with water-resistant material and storing them under climate controlled temperatures.

It is necessary to take care of your paintings or even the artworks of those that have been passed down through your family tree. The Box in Abu Dhabi makes provisions for your every requirement. Check out our services online at www.storageinabudhabi.com.
