The Rose Art Museum “The Rose at Brandeis: Works from the Collection” Curated by Adelina Jedrzejczak and Roy Dawes Oct. 28, 2009 – May 23, 2010 The Rose Art Museum Brandeis University Fall exhibition, special catalogue will mark celebration of The Rose Art Museum’s permanent collection WALTHAM, Mass.— In fall 2009, The Rose Art Museum at Brandeis University will feature its renowned collection, which includes modern and contemporary masterworks by some of the 20th century’s most revered artists, in an historic exhibition and catalogue. The wide-ranging show entitled, “The Rose at Brandeis: Works from the Collection” opens on Oct. 28th and will present the breadth of the collection by including pieces from dozens of artists who represent different historical periods, from Willem de Kooning, to Jasper Johns, Roy Lichtenstein, Morris Louis, Andy Warhol, Robert Motherwell, Helen Frankenthaler, Max Weber, Cindy Sherman, Kiki Smith, Larry Rivers, Philip Guston, Frank Stella, Jennifer Bartlett, Hans Hoffman, Louise Nevelson and Elsworth Kelley, among others. The exhibition will also explore the depth of The Rose’s holdings by focusing on groupings of artworks by several artists, to expose both artistic development and the process of collecting. “The length of the exhibition, running from October through May 23, 2010, will allow students and the public unprecedented access to some of the key artworks in the collection,” said show co-curator and Director of Museum Operations Roy Dawes. “It will allow museum visitors time to properly see, contemplate, study, revisit and gain perspective on this stupendous collection.” “The Rose at Brandeis” coincides with the Oct.1 publication of the first comprehensive catalogue of the museum’s collection. An effort that has been in the works for several years, “The Rose Art Museum at Brandeis” (Abrams) includes commentary from current and former Rose staff, and Brandeis faculty members. The catalogue documents a collection that represents major cultural movements of the past five decades, with a particular strength in American art of the 1960s and ‘70s. The catalogue and exhibition provide a look inside The Rose’s extensive collection as the museum approaches its 50th anniversary in 2011.

Rose Art Museum's Sam Hunter Emerging Artists Fund Committee
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Nina J. Berger, [email protected] 617.543.1595 High-resolution images available on request ROSE ART MUSEUM’S SAM HUNTER EMERGING ARTISTS FUND COMMITTEE SELECTS TWO WORKS BY B. INGRID OLSON TO ENTER THE COLLECTION (Waltham, MA) –The Rose Art Museum has announced that work by B. Ingrid Olson has been selected for acquisition by the Sam Hunter Emerging Artists Acquisition Fund Committee. Inspired by the legacy of the Rose’s founding director, Sam Hunter, the fund is generated annually and administered by a committee that aims to collect the work of promising artists on the cusp of recognition. Two works by Chicago-based Olson–Arched fold, bent of another movement, 2017 and Firing distance, scission, 2017–have been acquired for the Rose Art Museum’s collection. Straddling sculpture and photography, Olson’s work plays fascinating games with perception and vision. Olson was recently featured in a two-person exhibition at The Renaissance Society in Chicago, and her first solo museum show will open at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in March 2018. Her work will also be included in Being: New Photography 2018, at the Museum of Modern Art, New York (March 2018) and in a group show at the MCA Chicago, Picture Fiction: Kenneth Josephson and Contemporary Photography (April 28– December 30, 2018). “Ingrid is an extraordinary photographer, pushing the bounds of the medium while engaging with pressing issues of gender identity and representation,” say Leslie Aronzon, a member of this year’s committee. “Her work fits in well with the Rose collection, and we are so excited to add her impressive and fresh works to our permanent collection.” Joining Aronzon on this year’s committee are Kim Allen-Niesen, Steven Bunson, Tory Fair, Betsy Pfau, and Lisa Wyett.

Framework for the Future
THE FRAMEWORK FOR THE FUTURE FINAL REPORT January 2020 The Framework for the Future: Prefatory Remarks Brandeis University is at an important crossroads in its 72-year history. Founded by the American Jewish community on the principles of academic excellence and openness in hiring and admissions practices, Brandeis has achieved an inspiring degree of success — not just as a young university committed to educating undergraduates in the liberal arts but also as a major research institution. The Framework for the Future provides a scaffolding for the university’s coming decades. It is rooted in the institution’s history and builds upon its unique place in higher education. The Framework is the synthesis of more than three years of broad consultations with focus groups, including prospective students, current students, alumni, faculty, staff, trustees, friends, and parents. It is also based on responses from multiple alumni surveys; information gleaned from 30 “self-reflection” documents written by faculty and administrators; and the work of four task forces, composed of 11 working groups, which forwarded for consideration more than 250 recommendations. The synthesis of these sources does not include many of the recommendations that came out of the task force reports. Rather, it offers some overarching themes that require our attention most urgently as we seek to plan and advance Brandeis’ future. And while the Framework provides guideposts within which we will pursue many initiatives, its purpose is not to identify all the university’s plans, strengths, and achievements. Instead, it outlines a series of strategic initiatives and investments, especially in areas where we have over the years underinvested, which will allow us to build a stronger Brandeis over the next several years.

EVERY ROSE HAS ITS THORN: A NEW APPROACH TO DEACCESSION Andrew W. Eklund* INTRODUCTION In 1961, Edgar and Bertha Rose donated $1 million to Brandeis University to form the Rose Art Museum ("the Rose").' Initially, the Rose had no acquisition budget, so the now-7000-piece collection was built on gifts.2 Focused on twentieth-century art, the collection includes a strong selection of post-war artists like Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns, and Roy Lichtenstein,3 many of which were acquired through the initial gifts to the museum.4 In the face of the financial crisis and reduced donations due to the Bernard Madoff scandal, Brandeis University's board of trustees voted unanimously to close the Rose and sell the entire collection on January 26, 2009.5 Valued at approximately $350 million, the Rose was targeted to help deal with Brandeis' budget deficit, alleged to be as much as $10 million,6 as well as a decline in the University's endowment, from $712 million to $549 million, or twenty-three percent, since the financial crisis began.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Duke Law Student Papers Series by an authorized administrator of Duke Law Scholarship Repository. For more information, please contact [email protected]. ART DEACCESSIONS AND THE LIMITS OF FIDUCIARY DUTY SUE CHEN* ABSTRACT Art deaccessions prompt lawsuits against museums, and some commentators advocate using the stricter trust standard of care, instead of the prevailing corporate standard (business judgment rule), to evaluate the conduct of non-profit museum boards. This Article explores the consequences of adopting the trust standard by applying it to previously unavailable deaccession policies of prominent art museums. It finds that so long as museum boards adhere to these policies, their decisions would satisfy the trust standard. This outcome illustrates an important limitation of fiduciary law: the trust standard evaluates procedural care but cannot assess deaccessions on their merits. Yet this limitation, far from undercutting the trust rule, balances judicial review with protecting boards’ management discretion. This article ventures beyond formalist analysis of fiduciary duty and examines the non- legal, substantive rules governing art deaccessions.

DEACCESSIONING POLICIES and PUBLIC TRUST by Britney M
COLLECTIONS AS COMMUNICATION: DEACCESSIONING POLICIES AND PUBLIC TRUST By Britney M. Whiting-Looze A MASTER’S CAPSTONE Presented to the Arts and Administration Program of the University of Oregon in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Arts Management June 2010 ii Approved by: _________________________________ Dr. Phaedra Livingstone Arts and Administration Program University of Oregon Date: __________________ iii ABSTRACT: The intention of this capstone project is to explore and understand the changing relationship between purposively selected art museums in major metropolitan areas and the public those museums serve, as dictated by collections-related policies and practices. While legal and ethical implications of certain collections practices, like deaccessioning, are highly debated, those practices as related to public trust have received significantly less attention. These practices may influence public perception of a museum’s transparency and accountability. Qualitative information was gathered through capstone courses and historical-comparative research, taking a hermeneutic approach to existing scholarship, policy documents, applicable laws, and professional codes of ethics. KEYWORDS: Art Museums, Collections Management, Collections Policies, Deaccessioning, Public Trust iv Acknowledgments I would like to extend my gratitude to my research advisor, Dr. Phaedra Livingstone, as well as Dr. Patricia Dewey, for their guidance and support during this research. I would also like to thank Tina Rinaldi for giving me a strong example of what passion and dedication can do to develop a sense of self, and a sense of community. To my husband, Jordan Looze, who encouraged me to dig deeper whenever I felt my ground had run shallow. Thank you for your love and your keen eye for typos.

Let Them Sell Art: Why a Broader Deaccession Policy Today May
NOTES LET THEM SELL ART: WHY A BROADER DEACCESSION POLICY TODAY COULD SAVE MUSEUMS TOMORROW JORJA ACKERS CIRIGLIANA* I. INTRODUCTION In 1972, a New York Times critic unceremoniously introduced the public to deaccessioning when he outed the Metropolitan Museum of Art for selling art ―now that cash is hard for them to find.‖1 Since then, deaccessioning has become a widely implemented process that museums use to (1) remove a qualified object from the museum‘s collection record and (2) dispose of the object through sale, auction, gift, trade, or destruction.2 Despite wide implementation, there is currently a deaccessioning ―crisis‖3 that has instigated public outcry and even legislative reform.4 The crisis stems from the recent financial crisis, which has deeply affected museums. Museums are being forced to choose between making huge cut backs—even permanent closure—and deaccessioning portions of collections at the risk of lawsuits and condemnation. Museums should not have to choose. Instead, museums * Class of 2011, University of Southern California Gould School of Law; B.A. Art History and Theatre 2006, Knox College.
