A Tennessee chancery court turned down the deal, finding that it violated the terms of O'Keeffe's bequest. When Fisk then negotiated a $30 million deal to share its entire collection with the museum being built in Bentonville, Ark., by the Wal-Mart heiress Alice Walton, the court refused that too, for the same reason.
