Anticipated an art-as-investment editorial, but discovered a thought-provoking piece: "Parochial interests aside, however, great artworks shouldn’t be held hostage by a relatively unpopular museum in a declining region. The cause of art would be better served if they were sold to institutions in growing cities where museum attendance is more substantial and the visual arts are more appreciated than they’ve ever been in Detroit. Art lovers should stop equating the public good with the status quo." bloomberg/news/2013-06-06/detroit-s-van-gogh-would-be-better-off-in-l-a-.html
