Museum coverage across collections, temporary surveys, conservation work, curatorial appointments and deaccession controversies. Practical detail is included: admission, timed entry, free hours and how long a floor genuinely takes. For visitors planning a day and for readers following how institutions manage what they hold.
Museums coverage from Art Report.
Behind every new painting on a museum wall sits a chain of curatorial recommendations, dollar-tiered approvals, and — when a museum sells instead of buys — an increasingly strict rule on where the proceeds can go.
Museums acquire through four documented channels — purchase, gift, bequest, and transfer — and the rules on what happens next, codified by the AAMD and AAM, are why deaccessioning makes headlines when it happens.
