My sister, the famous one!

   Thu, June 5, 2008 - 10:03 AM
My sister Nina is an art conservator, and recently she had the honor of doing the cleaning and restoration on a Van Gogh the Portland Art Museum has acquired.

OPB did a piece on Oregon Art Beat on her, and it's airing tonight at 8 pm. I'm very proud of her!

**EDIT**

They have the story streaming from their website now: www.opb.org/programs/art...h-Restoration

Nice! I wonder if our local PBS stations might air this sometime. It must be thrilling and a bit frightening to do her job. I've never seen this painting before, but I thought I had seen them all.

Check it out peoples if you have cable--Oregon Art Beat is available for the last few episodes.

Your sister is so cool with that head apparatus!
What an amazing accomplishment. Yay Nina!
