deaccessioning to diversify 1547881

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.

art dead artists museum exhibitions politics

CULTURED reports that in 2025, nearly 50 percent of solo exhibitions at New York museums featuring modern and contemporary art focused on deceased artists, more than double the 18 percent share in 2019. Major institutions like MoMA, the Broad, ICA Miami, and the Whitney have programmed posthumous shows for figures such as Wifredo Lam, Helen Frankenthaler, Ruth Asawa, Robert Therrien, Joyce Pensato, Richard Hunt, and Roy Lichtenstein. The article traces this trend to a confluence of factors: ongoing scholarly revisionism, a cultural swing toward equity during the Biden administration, and the long lead times for museum exhibitions that have landed in a more polarized political climate under Trump II.
