In the April 15th Wall Street Journal article written by James Panero, Another Art Museum Puts Its Collection on the Block, the Montclair Art Museum reveals plans to deaccession fifty works from the permanent collection.
Among the works for sale will be a Jackson Pollack, works from the Hudson River School and American impressionists. According to Christie's auction house, the sale will yield between $2.9 million and $4.3 million for the museum, which will use the funds for future acquisitions.
