Publisher Description
"We museum directors can huff and puff about how once we bring these artworks into our collections that they no longer have value because they've been removed from the market, ... that they're held in trust for future generations. It's B.S. We go on and sell them and the rule is the proceeds from the sale can only go to replenish the collection." Hugh Davies, Director of the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego (1)
