Talk:Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation

message: Could someone please append "built in 19XX" next to each museum where they're listed? Since the firs on e is so old and the last ones are so recent they don't have articles, I think that would be of interest.Jules LT 09:58, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Irrelevant/outdated information? 

message: I intend to improve the content of the article, and have worked on the Lead today.  I have contacted User:ssilvers and asked if he would mentor me and other users on the staff of the Foundation in adding properly referenced information to the article.  Over the next few months, we will be reviewing all of the information in the article to update it and add more references.  -- Rrothberg (talk) 19:11, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I have met with Rrothberg and agreed to assist and advise the museum staff in expanding and improving the article.  I made new changes to the article and intend to continue next week.  All contributions and corrections are welcome and will be much appreciated.  -- Ssilvers (talk) 05:53, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Article improvement

message: Brilliant work on expanding this article.
I thought it looked odd to see the announcement that Krens expanded the Guggenheim by acquiring works in the Panza Collection, but then no mention of the deaccessioning controversy until some 3 paragraphs later, as if they were separate events. But then I looked at Thomas Krens and saw that my main source for this, Kimmelman (1990), was missing! So I fixed it. Now, see:
Also, already cited: Glueck, Grace. "Guggenheim May Sell Artworks to Pay for a Major New Collection", The New York Times, March 5, 1990.
The article should be changed to say that the Guggenheim sold off Kandinskys, Chagalls and Modiglianis in order to get the $47 million they needed to buy the Panza works, and drew harsh criticism as a result. Krens defended this as consistent with the museum's principles, while his critics had strong reservations about trading earlier masters for "trendy" latecomers. It's misleading to present the expansion and deaccessioning as having no connection. I haven't checked, but Hilton Kramer must have had something scathing about it to say at the time, and he was surely the dean of Guggenheim critics. 
Still, excellent work by Ssilvers. Bravo. Carry on. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 03:34, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Done.  See what you think.  Any interest in putting up an article on Thomas M. Messer?  I'm going to do one on the current director, but we could use a short article on Messer. -- Ssilvers (talk) 14:56, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Deaccessioning and the Panza Collection 

message: There is inconsistency about locations of cities. Venice is said to be in Italy and Bilbao in Spain, but New York, Berlin and Abu Dhabi aren't anywhere, it appears. We should either add "US", "Germany" and "United Arab Emirates" (or "UAE") or alternatively lose the "Italy" and "Spain". The blue-linking of the locations is also inconsistent. Tim riley (talk) 08:29, 17 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks!  I added "United Arab Emirates", moved Berlin out of the Lead (since it closed) but added "Germany" below.  I don't think we need US, as Wikipedia assumes that every English speaker knows where NY and London are. -- Ssilvers (talk) 14:00, 17 March 2014 (UTC)
