NCP Art is a place dealing in a broad sense with works of art. Our main activity is focused on the Laboratory of Analysis and Conservation of Works.
We specialize in performing non-destructive analyzes and conservation of works of easel painting and sculpture, as well as conducting art history analyses and expert opinions confirming authenticity.
Our original project is the Dossier of the Work, comprehensive documentation of a work of art. An example of a dossier can be found in the Realizations tab.
