v sell (art works) from a collection, especially in order to raise money for the purchase of other art works
The museum deaccessioned several important works of this painter
So its deaccession plan led to an angry public meeting in March at which Grachos was confronted by residents insisting he could have done more to find other sources of money.
It would dramatically lower the bar for a "justifiable" deaccession.
Even deaccession purists don't question their right to sell from their collections if the money brought in that way goes to buy more art.
