Sysphere is a standing member and practices standard guidelines of the American Institute for the Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works (AIC) & FAIC Washington, DC.

Since art begins to change from the moment the artist is finished working on it, preservation is essential to maintain the best possible condition of the artwork. Thus, SYSPHERE FINE ART CONSERVATION & RESTORATION (SFACR) offers comprehensive conservation and restoration services, along with consultation, documentation, and condition reports for damaged artwork to preserve clients' valuable Fine Art Collections.

SFACR is founded by the internationally renowned conservator and restorer Sysphere, a highly accomplished visionary multi-discipline fine artist, designer and art dealer. He specializes in Old Masters painting techniques learned from The School of Art Institute of Chicago & Loyola University Chicago.

Recently, Sysphere was part of the Andrew W. Mellon foundation collaborative symposium at the Harvard University faculty club in Cambridge and prints conservation workshop at Northeast Document Conservation Center Andover, MA. From childhood, Sysphere was trained in the fine arts by his father, a professor, virtuoso conservator, artist and Renaissance man.

After receiving hands-on training for over 40 years of conservation and restoration techniques taught by seasoned professionals at the best studios in Chicago and New York, Sysphere established his first full-service Fine Art loft Atelier in downtown Chicago in early 1980s. At the turn of the new millennium, Sysphere moved to California and established his new Atelier in SOMA San Francisco.

Over the past 40 years, Sysphere has achieved virtuosity and refinement in the practice of art conservation and restoration, providing first-class care, innovative solutions, creativity and craftsmanship, as well as exceptional technical abilities with in-depth knowledge of specialized materials and methodologies, capable of reverting damaged artworks to their original pristine conditions, including oils, acrylics, mixed media, paintings, murals, figurines, works on paper, watercolors, gouaches, screens, scrolls, objects, sculptures, and frames. The wide scope of masterfully restored artworks by Sysphere includes hundreds of art works from major schools of art, and genres including Old Masters, School of Barbizon, Impressionism, Contemporary Art, Modernism, Post-Modernism, Western, Asian and World Art, as well as art from valuable estate and private collections, art galleries and museums.

Sysphere has been a mentor and inspiration for students from prestigious institutions such as Ecole Conte, Paris, France, The Art Institute of Chicago, American Academy Chicago, Art Institute San Francisco, Minerva University International, San Francisco, and others, supporting them through their higher degree accreditations for a number of years. Sysphere is coming to be recognized as a "restorer's restorer" (see examples below).
