An attorney representing two retired Valparaiso University professors with long standing relationships with the university’s Brauer Museum of Art agreed to drop a request for a temporary restraining order to stop the sale of three cornerstone pieces of artwork after learning during a Tuesday court hearing that sale of the artwork is not imminent.
Court documents are expected to be filed in Porter County on Monday against Valparaiso University and its president, Jose Padilla, in an attempt to stop the sale of artwork from the university’s Brauer Museum of Art in violation of the trust that provided it to raise funds for the renovation of dorms for first-year students.
