Munitz On Things Getty

Getty president Barry Munitz sits down to address the controversies swirling around the institution – the Italian artifacts case, morale, his salary and the infamous Porsche. Are staff jumping ship? “There hasn’t been a massive outflow. There hasn’t even been a major outflow of people. The museum director resigned and one other person who was her closest partner and colleague went at the same time. Not a single person left the museum in the year since she left. Everybody stayed. We went from a search (for a new curator) and hired the No. 1 candidate on everybody’s list, Michael Brand.”
