Presentación del arte de la pintura mural de Almada Negreiros en las Estaciones Marítimas de Alcântara (Lisboa): investigación diagnóstica de capas de pintura como guía para su futura conservación

Palabras clave: Almada Negreiros, pinturas murales, diagnóstico, SEM-EDS, μ-XRD, µ-FT-IR, Py-GC/MS

Resumen

Este artículo informa de la investigación de diagnóstico de capas de pintura deterioradas de tres paneles murales realizados por Almada Negreiros en la estación marítima de Alcântara en Lisboa. El objetivo era comprender los principales fenómenos de descomposición para ayudar a futuros trabajos de conservación. La metodología comprendió análisis in situ mediante fotografía técnica en Vis, Vis-RaK y UVF, p-OM y h-EDXRF; micro muestreo; OM, SEM- EDS, μ-XRD, μ-Raman, µ-FT-IR y Py-GC/MS. Los primos resultados muestran que todas las capas de pintura analizadas están afectadas por sales (sulfatos) que a lo largo del tiempo han provocado escamas, falta de cohesión, erosión y lagunas. Las capas de pintura de color verde claro/verde claro azulado en los tres paneles son las más logradas. No se encontraron aglutinantes orgánicos, solo la presencia de polímero de vinilo en superficies de pintura brillante.
