I thought you might enjoy this article from the Tennessean. Fisk University
is trying sell two of the most famous works in it's collection to use for a
number of different projects. Now the estate of the original donor is
objecting because as part of the original agreement Fisk agreed not to sell
the collection. Fisk says so what we have owned these things for three
generations and we can do as we please with them. This seems wrong on so
many levels. I can't imagine what the folks at Fisk are thinking. There is
no way they can navigate this with out having egg all over their collective
faces.
Take care,
Trent
