Resumo(s)
The present dissertation, in the course of Master’s degree in the Sciences of Conservation, Restauration and Production of Contemporary Art, at the Faculty of Fine Arts at the University of Lisbon, aims to explore volumetric reconstruction and its application to a work in gesso by the sculptor Simões de Almeida Júnior, O Órfão (1871). The Faculty of Fine Arts possesses in their archive an original gesso which is missing the right hand. The National Museum for Contemporary Art (MNAC) possesses another gesso copy of the same sculpture which is also missing part of the right hand and arm. In this work, we seek to familiarize ourselves with the life and work of Simões de Almeida (Tio) and, by way of the statue O Órfão, broadening the theme of volumetric construction in the practice of conservation and restoration. Firstly, we will present the trajectory of the artist and provide a general survey of the sculptural works which have survived. Following, ethical questions are addressed regarding the profession of the conservationist-restorer in a manner which leads us to the final part: examining the modus operandi of the profession, and the technical legitimacy of volumetric reconstruction. The research also investigates the topic of photogrammetry to better understand the process which allows the execution of a 3D replica which will be applied to the gesso. This process began with an original photograph of O Órfão, from the MNAC collection, in which the work is depicted in its entirety, and measurements taken from the original (of the left hand) of O Órfão, from the Faculty of Fine Arts in Lisbon. The final objective of this dissertation is volumetric reconstruction of the element which is completely missing (the right hand and wrist) and aims to achieve the interpretation and appreciation of the artwork as a whole.
