A reminder that two weeks from Monday, I will join a panel discusion at Columbia Law School entited "Selling the Museum's Collection: Is Deaccessioning Ever Appropriate?" From the event description:
"The Kernochan Center for Law, Media and the Arts is proud to welcome Roberta Smith, New York Times art critic, and Nicholas O'Donnell, author of "The Art Law Report" and partner at Sullivan and Worcester LLP, for a discussion of recent issues in museum collection management and the plight of the Detroit Institute of Art. Moderators will be Donn Zaretsky of John Silberman Associates P.C. and Pippa Loengard, Kernochan Center Assistant Director."
This is a topic that inspires great passion, and the discussion should be lively. Hope to see you there.
