Overview:  
 
Abstract: This thesis examines the possibilities and limitations of conservation of art works, which are made of natural latex. Main consideration is given to the work Fishman (1968/69) from Paul Thek, which is part of the Kolumba Museum collection in Cologne. The research of the artist’s intention, technology, condition report of the work, as well as its comparison with the other three versions of the sculpture and their conservation history, form the basis for the development of a treatment proposal and presentation concept. In conclusion, a storage and transport concept for Fishman will be proposed.
