TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper conducted a comprehensive investigation using a full-frame digital camera, an industrial endoscope, an infrared thermal imager, an online environmental monitoring system, and a three-dimensional laser scanner.
Abstract: Built in Kaitai 9 years after the beginning of the Liao Dynasty (1020 A.D.), the Daxiong Hall of Fengguo Temple (Yixian County, Liaoning Province) is one of China’s largest existing ancient single-eave wooden architecture structures. In 2012, it was listed on the “Preliminary List of World Cultural Heritage in China.” Preserved Buddhist murals depicting the Yuan Dynasty cover approximately 470 m2 of the hall’s four walls. Since the in-situ reinforcement and protection of the mural, conducted in the 1980s in cooperation with the maintenance and restoration project of the main hall, seriously developed cracks—known as secondary cracks—have become a primary factor affecting the mural’s structural stability. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive investigation using a full-frame digital camera, an industrial endoscope, an infrared thermal imager, an online environmental monitoring system, and a three-dimensional laser scanner. Our results, and other relevant materials, allowed us to deepen our understanding of the existing structural features, the nature of the cracks, the deformation conditions, and the environmental characteristics of the mural. Moreover, we provide a further discussion on the macroscopic formation process of the secondary cracks.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted a qualitative study of street art in interior design and found that street art used as a part of interior design in principle plays the role of communicating messages to the public.
Abstract: The street art culture continues to flourish after the Reformation in Indonesia. Its development has not only been in the public space, but also in the field of interior design in certain segments. The high rate of consumerism has triggered a shift in the artistic function of street art, from street decoration to becoming part of the interior design of a cafe. The method of qualitative research with data collection techniques of interviews and direct observation was used in this research. Data was validated using data triangulation. Research results show that the development of street art used as a part of interior design in principle plays the role of communicating messages to the public. These messages serve as a way of conveying social issues and personal expressions of the artist. Murals in interior design communicate messages of aesthetics, sponsor, commerce, illustrations, and a “new lifestyle” that supports the concept of themes in a space. Street art murals that are used as a part of interior design have experienced a conceptual shift, but in regard to technique and motif are still the same as street art in general. The types of street art murals used in public spaces do not use only one mural motif; instead, they use a combination of several styles. Trends of street art murals di Malang include hand lettering, illustration, and character murals.

TL;DR: An outstanding example of Navarrese High Gothic wall-painting is to be found in the fourteenth century retable dedicated to the Passion of Christ, formerly located in the refectory of the cathedral at Pamplona as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: AN outstanding example of Navarrese High Gothic wall-painting is to be found in the fourteenth century retable dedicated to the Passion of Christ, formerly located in the refectory of the cathedral at Pamplona (Fig. I).1 It was not until 1944, when the ensemble was cleaned, that the full value of this mural decoration was realized.2 The top portion of the painting had been covered in the late seventeenth or early eighteenth century with a scene of the Agony in the Garden, but the repainting which disfigured the lower zones had gradually disappeared and some indication of what was hidden beneath the outer layers had become apparent.3 Removal of the overpainting established the extraordinary artistic merit of the retable and brought to light the name of the artist, the date of the painting, and the constructor of the refectory. Now, in the Provincial Museum of Pamplona, in brilliant colors highlighted with gold, the artistry and craftsmanship of one Johannes Oliveri may be seen for the first time since the ...
