An Iowa lawmaker has proposed a bill that would require the University of Iowa to sell its famed Jackson Pollock painting

Proceeds from the sale would go into a trust fund that would provide scholarships to University of Iowa undergraduate art majors from Iowa. The buyer would have to lend the painting to the university for a period of three months or more every four years.

Faculty Senate President Ed Dove called the proposal short-sighted, in part because “getting rid of it would defeat the purpose of having a school of art and art history and having a museum of art.”
