Over 3,400 signatures on the Save The Rose petition
And great stuff over at savetheroseart.org
Lots of links today for the Rose Art...just going to list them all:
The Hoot recording of President Reinharz answering questions.
NPR has an interview with Boston art collector David Genser who donated a print
The Art Law Blog has some great stuff: initial reaction, morning after, the evening after, about not being able to sell individual pieces, more on all on all or nothing, more about the story, then, lastly "Think about it"
Innermost Parts with a lot, lot more articles.
The Arctic Penguin with a suggestion that it was the Rose's failure, not Madoff.
And, TIME magazine about the Madoff selloff ends with this unfortunate quote:
Meanwhile, here's a statement I'll best Rose Art Museum Director Michael Rush wishes he hadn't made to the Brandeis alumni magazine two years ago. After telling an interviewer that he planned to have a formal appraisal done to put a dollar value on the museum's collection, Rush added:
“I'm confident that, after its real estate, art is the university's largest financial asset, and I want everyone to know it.”
Obviously the trustees got the news.
