	Art Museum Network
		With only 500 works of art acquired since it began collecting nine years ago, the new facility is doubtless being conceived in large part to elicit the civic-minded participation of Miami’s many self-reliant mega-collectors, including the Rubell family and Marty Margulies, who have created private museums with impressive strength and depth.
		In US museums, an estimated 80-90% of art acquisitions are gifts and bequests from collectors, and since a robust art market continues to push museums to the margins, it is obligatory to prepare spaces for possible donations.
		Museums with smaller collections should insure that their expanded facilities make room both for the commercial and exhibition offer and for adequate collections support space and budgets to attract gifts.
