Hi, We are currently trying to make a new crate for a painting
by Georg Herold, which consists of stretched linen on a strainer, onto which he
glued 9 bricks (red bricks used in construction), with a thick rubber cement.
The bricks simply follow gravity, pulling the fabric tight downward, and
they tend to giggle a lot when the piece is moved. They are aligned
vertically at about 3-4 inches apart, some are closer due to the gravity pull. Does
anybody have suggestions on a packing solution that would facilitate the move
to and from the crate and the wall? Ideally we would want the bricks to
be braced somehow so that the piece can travel safely without the risk of
ripping the canvas if the bricks move too much… Thank you for your help!
