The Carta del Rischio del Patrimonio Culturale Italiano - conceived by the Istituto Superiore per la Conservazione e il Restauro (ISCR, former ICR) - relies on the concept of preventive restoration developed by Cesare Brandi in 1963 (Teoria del restauro), and represents the operational tool to implement the process of preventive maintenance and planned conservation started by Giovanni Urbani since the 1970s. In 1973 (Problemi di conservazione), Urbani highlighted the need to review ICR activities in order to promote an innovative safeguard system based on the analysis of natural and anthropic risks to which cultural heritage is exposed and on its planned conservation - a concept already present in embryo in Brandi's work under the heading of preventive restoration.

Abstract
The Carta del Rischio del Patrimonio Culturale Italiano - conceived by the Istituto Superiore per la Conservazione e il Restauro (ISCR, former ICR) - relies on the concept of preventive restoration developed by Cesare Brandi in 1963 (Teoria del restauro), and represents the operational tool to implement the process of preventive maintenance and planned conservation started by Giovanni Urbani since the 1970s. In 1973 (Problemi di conservazione), Urbani highlighted the need to review ICR activities in order to promote an innovative safeguard system based on the analysis of natural and anthropic risks to which cultural heritage is exposed and on its planned conservation - a concept already present in embryo in Brandi's work under the heading of preventive restoration.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
