Dear Giovanni,
This is a very good point you raised.
It is good, because the conflict between the Italian Government and the Getty
Museum is of global importance and the outcome of it will determine the policy of
major museums in the long term.
I would suggest to have the case from the Italian side and from the Getty
museum side published on this list so that all members will be able to form their
own judgement.
Besides, because with respect to important questions like these ICOM
leadership is needed, to have ICOM guide the process of getting more
understanding of the issues involved.
