Section of the AAMD Guidelines relied upon for the exception to 1970
Gift or bequest expected or on loan prior to 2008
Explain why the object fits the exception set forth above
The object qualifies as an exception to the 1970 rule because Nanette Kelekian signed a will prior to 2008 that documents her intent to bequeath the work to the Museum. Additionally, Charles D. Kelekian (d. 1982) had a practice of collecting many works once owned by the Dikran G. Kelekian gallery, dissolved in 1952. He transferred many of these works to his daughter, Nanette, during his lifetime. Her records indicate this work was transferred after 1970.
