“The real reason we have to look hard at the issue of storage, then, is the essential part it plays in our ability to procure new works we deeply desire for the collection. At the very least, we should have the same opportunity to make errors of judgement that our predecessors did. At best, we should be able to do much better, if only to sharpen awareness off how relatively little really does end up mattering in the end.”
Ann Tempkin, Chief Curator of Painting and Sculpture at MoMA in Artforum
