Section of the AAMD Guidelines relied upon for the exception to 1970

N/D

Explain why the object fits the exception set forth above

LACMA follows the American Association of Art Museum Directors (AAMD) 2008 guidelines on the Acquisition of Archeological Material and Ancient Art. Due to the lack of provenance for this object dating prior to 1970, this acquisition in made relying on an exception to AAMD guidelines based on the number, places and circumstances of “independent exhibitions and publications” of this work (see listings below). In addition, AAMD guidelines also allow for the gift of a work of art that had been on long-term loan to the museum prior to 2008.
