It is the case that Baryn Futa’s love of fine art was a long time coming. It actually started during his retirement, when he took a job with the Denver Art Museum. There, he became an art aficionado. He developed his 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 impressive art collection has since become very extensive and impressive because these days, Baryn Futa firmly believes art to be a defining element of any culture. That makes art a key element of preserving our culture for future generations. Because the art of the past puts us in touch with our ancestors in a way that nothing else can, the art of today will create a touchstone for future generations. That makes art preservation a crucial task, which is why Baryn Futa is motivated to be a prominent arts benefactor. Baryn Futa also 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.
