Todd Gibson suspects that the imperial hubris on the part of Thomas Krens behind Peter Lewis's decision to resign from the Guggenheim's board is only the beginning; Deyan Sudjic makes the authoritative case against sanguinity in the Guardian. This detail was new to me: Apparently, back when Krens lent Jackson Pollock's priceless Number 18 (among other works) to a private gallery, he didn't tell any of the museum's trustees until someone showed up to pick it up. Have to wonder what the other board members think they're getting for supporting Krens over Lewis.
