deaccessioning to diversify

In late April 2018, the Baltimore Museum of Art announced a plan to deaccession seven works by white, male postwar artists to fund acquisitions of works by African American and female artists. Since then, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Art Gallery of Ontario have adopted similar diversity-focused deaccessioning strategies, selling works at auction to diversify their collections. The BMA sold pieces by Franz Kline, Kenneth Noland, and Andy Warhol at Sotheby's, using proceeds to acquire works by artists including Jack Whitten, Lynette Yiadom-Boakye, and Amy Sherald. SFMOMA is deaccessioning a Mark Rothko painting estimated at $35–50 million, while the AGO is selling 20 works by A.Y. Jackson through Heffel Fine Art Auction House.

U.K. Museum Races to Acquire 18th-Century Portrait of Black Gardener

The Garden Museum in London has launched a campaign to raise £420,000 ($560,000) to acquire the earliest known portrait of a Black British gardener, John Ystumllyn. Painted by an unknown artist in 1754, the work depicts Ystumllyn as a young man in a blue suit and waistcoat. He was abducted from West Africa as a child, trained as a gardener on the Ystumllyn estate in Wales, and later became a renowned horticulturist. The painting has been on loan to the museum since 2023, and the institution aims to permanently display it alongside another portrait of a Black gardener from 1905.
