A solution to the University of Iowa Museum of Art problem: Sell the Jackson Pollock painting, supposedly worth $140 million. Build the Jackson Pollock Art Museum.
The remaining money could be used for a Jackson Pollock scholarship program.
How could the artist be anything but proud of two such monuments, results from the sale of one piece of his art work.
