- The Cleveland Museum of Art’s Director David Franklin has resigned “for personal reasons,” and the board wishes him well. That’s about all a cleveland.com reporter sought to find out about the situation, but it was immediately followed by the news that the museum would be auctioning off a few works through Christie’s.

As long as that Cleveland Scene story has really thin sourcing I can hope it’s not true, right? Wow. (Not sharing ’til it’s better sourced.)
