The seminar focuses on the peculiar aspects of conservation policies for open air museums. In particular, the speech will offer an overview of conservation practices in monumental cemeteries addressing two specific case studies: the cemetery of Staglieno in Genova (Italy) and the cemetery of Recoleta in Buenos Aires (Argentina). Due to the value and amount of monuments (tombs, gravestones, chapels and other items) the two cemeteries are considered important open air museums able to display both architectural and artistic venues. The most influent artists from the XIXth and XXth centuries tested themselves in these places with the design of funerary structures and sculptures destined to become iconic examples of that period. Different causes are endangering this heritage that today is in a state of neglect. Different actions against deterioration, protection methodologies, and partial reconstruction interventions are examined, especially to emphasize the main different challenges posed by the structure at the mercy of elements and by those partially protected in galleries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
