The next conference in Glass Science in Art and Conservation, GLASSAC-08, will take place on March 5-7, 2008, at the Valencia University Historic Building on the Valencia city center. The poster session and a glass exhibition will take place at the Cloister of the Historic Building.
Following the successful conferences organised in Portugal in 1999, "Glass, Art and Science" and 2005, “Glass Science in Art and Conservation” by the Portuguese Glass Association, the participants agreed that there was a need for the international glass community to share knowledge and insight across the barriers which all too easily separate glass science and technology from art, conservation and design.
Therefore, the group of Materials Science applied on Cultural Heritage from the Materials Science Institute of Valencia University takes the opportunity to continue this fructiferous and interesting event and now, we are organizing the second “Glass Science in Art and Conservation” congress in Valencia (Spain).
