Deaccessioning Roundup


For those keeping tabs on the deaccessioning wars, a couple of notable stories have come out this week. For starters, it looks like New York’s Brodsky Bill–which will create rules for deaccessioning of items in a museum’scollection and regulate the use of funds from disposed items–is on the fast-track to being passed.

Pro-deaccessionists are hard to come by, but this week Guggenheim Director Richard Armstrong weighed in (at the heavyweight category), and basically opined that the deaccessioning self-righteousness of “provincial” art institutions will only hasten their death.
