Painting restoration

in Barcelona by Alex Víctor Ihnatenko (AVI) — restorer and member of the CRAC (Association of Conservators-Restorers of Catalonia)

Hello, I'm Alex, a professional restorer in Barcelona specializing in paintings, stained glass, and antique frescoes.
I've worked on projects of significant historical value, such as the restoration of works by Francesc Soler Rovirosa at the Herboristería del Rei and the portrait of the founder of the Rieusset factory in Barcelona.
Each restoration is carried out using professional conservation techniques, ensuring a lasting result that is faithful to the work's authenticity, in accordance with European ECCO standards.

Conservation

As a professional restorer in Barcelona, I can help you preserve your art and restore it to its original appearance. Almost any painting sooner or later requires conservation, and for this purpose, a special glue is used that fills the voids, restores the plasticity of the paint layer, and holds together the damaged areas

Deep cleaning and conservation

In my restoration workshop in Barcelona, I offer services for deep cleaning and conservation of paintings. With my experience and advanced techniques, I can remove years of dust and dirt accumulation and preserve the long-term quality of the artwork. If your painting requires additional restoration, I can also assist you with that.

Retouch

Some areas of the painting are subject to retouching, which allows the painting to return to its neat appearance. Retouching is done using a technique that is reversible if necessary and does not harm the originality of the work of art. An important point in the process of painting restoration is the selection of pigments that will not change their tone and shade over time.

Complete restoration

A complete restoration of a painting has a specific sequential plan of action that must be diligently carried out by the restorer to achieve the result. The important point is that some of these actions are not obvious and are hidden from the eyes of the owner of the painting, so I always make a photo report of the restoration process so that my clients can be sure that no stage was skipped.
