...Brandeis remains intent on selling part of its collection, there may be a certain logic in getting out of the museum business first. The school may be hoping that if the Rose is transformed into something other than a museum - or just into something that doesn't call itself a museum -?it can circumvent the code of ethics that governs the sale of art by museums. No museum means no rules to observe, especially the most inconvenient one - that museums should not sell art from their permanent collections for any purpose other than to raise funds to purchase more...
