Court says New Mexico museum has no standing in Fisk case
Fisk University doesn’t have to give up 101 art works donated by painter Georgia O’Keeffe to a New Mexico museum in her name, the Tennessee Court of Appeals ruled in a decision filed Tuesday.

O’Keeffe donated the collection to the school in 1949...Tennessean
