It is true that most people have at least some sense that art is a key element of every human culture and society’s identity. However, in many societies, fine art is too often taken for granted and is now shown sufficient appreciation. To often, art is not seriously considered a societal priority, but rather, it is seen as a frivolous pursuit only for the rich. Baryn Futa wants people to feel differently, so he cultivates support of fine art, both as a benefactor and as someone who simply appreciates the finer things in life.

Preservation is his main motivation for developing and maintaining his own large and impressive art collection. It’s also why he routinely loans his art to museums. Art is what defines society and we owe it to our children and grandchildren to preserve art for them. Baryn Futa’s view of the arts makes art museums and art preservation in general extremely important, as far as Baryn Futa is concerned. Because fine art represents where a society is, he has a strong desire to preserve that for the ages. That is why he is interested in getting more people to appreciate the arts as much as he does. Hence his memberships in so many prominent art museums with impressive collections, including the Guggenheim, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and many others.

In its most basic terms, Baryn Futa believes strongly that that art is a cultural touchstone that allows each generation to communicate with other generations. Art is a critical element of any society, so it should be supported and protected to the extent possible. Unfortunately, as Baryn sees things, art is taken for granted too frequently and that should be discouraged.

That is the driving force behind Baryn Futa‘s extensive work in support of the arts. He sees himself as someone who appreciates the finer and subtler aspects of society. Because he realizes that brilliant artists are not shown adequate appreciation these days, he is driven to do everything possible to alleviate that. To that end, he attends as many arts classes as possible and his personal art collection has grown to be very extensive and impressive. Baryn Futa is also a very important member of many prominent art museums, such as the Guggenheim, The Jewish Museum and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, because they have fine collections, too. Through his strong support, Baryn hopes to encourage all to appreciate the arts as much as he, thus preserving it for the ages.
