Brandeis administrators are currently in talks with international auction house Sotheby's to explore methods of garnering revenue from the Rose Art Museum that do not include the sale of artwork, according to a May 27 University press release.The press release explains that these talks are in the formative stages and that "President [Jehuda] Reinharz said it is premature to say what kind of agreements might be negotiated, what the time frame may be, what parties might be interested, what art might be included or how much revenue any agreement might generate.""After discussing the issue over the last year, Brandeis has decided it's time to take the next step and seriously explore what options there are for non-sale alternatives," wrote Senior Vice President for Communications Andrew Gully in an e-mail to the Justice.In an interview with the Justice, Reinharz said that he was unsure what the methods of gaining revenue would consist of and explained that the University is relying on the expertise of Sotheby's staff.
