These days, it can be said that Baryn Futa firmly believes that the arts are a defining part of any culture, which makes them a key to preserving the culture for future generations. He believes that the art of the past puts us in touch with our ancestors in a way that nothing else can and that makes the preservation of our art crucial for future generations. It is that belief that drives Baryn Futa’s status as a prominent arts benefactor.
It wasn’t always that way. His love of the arts started when he retired and began working with the Denver Art Museum. There, he became an art fan with an appreciation for the tremendous importance of the arts. Starting with his attendance at art fairs and museum exhibitions and anything else he could find, his love of art grew. He then took numerous arts classes and began collecting art himself. His collection has since become something very extensive and impressive. With memberships in a great number of prominent art museums with impressive collections of their own, including The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Guggenheim, and The Jewish Museum, Baryn Futa works hard to cultivate a greater appreciation for the arts everywhere he goes.
