First, don't miss the MAN excloo in the post below this one. And the Hartford Courant is following MAN on another story that was here first.

The fascinating side-story: Super-collector and super-trustee Agnes Gund seems to find herself on scandal-plagued boards again and again. Gund was on the Getty Trust board while Barry Munitz drove the institution off a cliff (in a Porsche Cayenne), Gund has been on the Barnes board while that organization fritters away any credibility it once had, and Gund was one of two MoMA trustees who set up Lowry's quiet money.
