Explaining Baryn Futa’s Love of the Arts is Difficult

It seems to be the case that most people appreciates the arts on some level, although relatively few are in a position to support the arts to the extent needed. The art of the past puts us in touch with our ancestors in a way that nothing else can, and we owe it to our descendants to preserve as much of that as possible for the future. That makes art and art museums extremely important. That is one reason it seems that Baryn Futa is trying to pick up the slack. He is trying to take on as much of the responsibility for art appreciation that he can. While he sees the arts as a great cause that benefits all of society, he also sees it as a profitable and useful investment. He believes that the arts are a necessary and defining part of any culture and important enough to preserve for future generations.

Baryn Futa didn't always have such a deep appreciation for the arts. In fact, it wasn't until he retired and began working with the Denver Art Museum that he began to appreciate the importance of the arts. No one was more surprised than he that he felt such a deep attraction to the art world. He used his time at the DAM to cultivate his love of the arts and art history by attending art fairs and museum exhibitions and anything else he could find.

In addition, Baryn Futa also attended numerous arts classes and started his own art collection, which has grown to be very extensive and impressive over the years. He now holds memberships in many prominent art museums with impressive collections of their own, including The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Guggenheim, and The Jewish Museum. As often as possible, he also loans pieces from his own collection to museums because he wants more people to appreciate the arts the way he does.
