Extremely frustrating. Relatedly, I just wrote at length to a museum director about wanting to see a painting in the collection. The painting has been warehoused for years, like thousands of other works. it's not in need of special preservation. it's simply not on display because their walls have no room and the artist isn't currently of any special interest (except that he's important enough to have his work hoarded?). What a shame! All works in all major collections should be digitized and on display. What's the point of our culture if it's not being transmitted!
