도쿄예술대학에서는 1984년 3월부터 2018년 3월까지 누계 617건의 박사학위를 수여했다. 그 중 문화재 및 미술품의 실기적(實技的) 복원 연구가 10%를 넘는다. 도쿄예술대학 대학원 보존수복 일본화연구실의 박사과정에서는 미술사학이나 과학 조사, 사진 촬영 등에 의한 학술적 객관성을 토대로 한 복원 모사의 교육 연구를 진행해 왔다. 그러한 복원 모사의 기반에는 학부나 석사과정에서 과제로 부여하고 있는 현상(現狀) 모사의 경험이 있었다. 오늘날 과학 조사나 사진 촬영 등에 의해 복원 모사나 모사를 담당하는 화가의 입장은 크게 변화하고 있다. 그 소용돌이 속에 있는 일본화연구실에서는 학위 연구로서의 주체성 및 복원 모사의 새로운 방법론 구축에서 과제를 찾고 있다.

From March 1984 to March 2018, a total of 617 students received a doctoral degree from Tokyo University of the Arts. More than 10% of them received their degree for their research on the practical reproduction of cultural properties and art objects. In the doctoral course in the Laboratory for Japanese Painting Conservation, Graduate School of Fine Arts, Tokyo University of the Arts, we have been carrying out education and research on assumed reproduction on the basis of academic objectivity, referring to the history of art and using the results of scientific examination and photography. The background technique of assumed reproduction is based on the experience of students who had practiced copying the present condition of cultural properties when they were studying undergraduate and master’s courses. Today, the status of assumed reproduction and those who are involved in reproduction has markedly changed as a result of scientific examination and photographing technology. Under such circumstances, our laboratory is attempting to establish the research independence and a new methodology of assumed reproduction as doctoral research topics.
