More on that Pollock
February 17 2011
The University of Iowa's mega Jackson Pollock painting, which I mentioned earlier, has come a step closer to being sold. Now, the price is thought to be $120m.
The Iowa House legislature has voted to force the University to sell the painting, in order to raise funds for scholarships.
Is such a thing possible in the UK? I hope not. But I do know of some nice pictures in the Oxford and Cambridge area...
