Jim, read the WSJ article about the Whitney renting out
part of their collection to the San Jose Museum of Art.
Keep in mind that the only museum director the WSJ hates
more than David Ross is Tom Krens at the Guggenheim and
I suppose Michael Govan will be third now that he's
director of DIA (there was an article on him in the
NY Times Sunday Arts Section, 7/31/94).
 
People love to line up and take pot shots at these projects
but never seem to offer any solutions themselves. As it is
most of the Whitney Collection sits in a brand new storage
facility on 14th Street. These are the people who sat back
and watched the N-Y Historical Society fall apart.
