J. Paul Getty Trust Vice President for Finance Resigns, in NY Times today:

"The J. Paul Getty Trust in Los Angeles said yesterday that its vice president for finance and administration, Bradley W. Wells, had resigned. It said in a statement that Mr. Wells, who has held the job since 2001 and oversaw the trust’s budget, accounting and security, had given no reason for his resignation, which takes effect on Wednesday. Next week the California attorney general’s office is expected to announce the results of an investigation into whether the management of the trust and its spending violated laws requiring that nonprofit foundations use their resources for the public good. The trust has been dogged by accusations of mismanagement, which led to the resignation of Barry Munitz, the trust’s president and chief executive, in February. The trust’s board chairman, John H. Biggs, announced last week that he would to step down by October." RANDY KENNEDY

Gallery Revisited favorite, Neil Wax, works at the Getty.
It is a very covert job, with eradic hours, but heck, someone's gotta pay for Neil's art fabrication. May as well be a gargantuan art mecca.
Neil will be showing his Abject Goods on September 2 - early October.

Do not regret having not seen his work. Your exposure to it limits your liability. Your ownership of it extends your immunity.

Visiting the show will help you understand this. HMmmmmm.
