The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, The Louvre in Paris, The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., the Museo del Prado in Spain -- some of the world’s most popular museums that receive millions of guests per year. But not every museum is so lucky as to boast 6 million annual visitors and collections from Monet, Michelangelo and DaVinci as the National Gallery in London can. Artists and museums alike struggle to gain support and appreciation across global communities, which fine arts benefactor Baryn Futa recognizes and addresses. The life of an artist can be difficult, from not being able to finance projects to lacking the creative support to delve into art professionally. Futa strives to support these artistic contributions as much as he is able in addition to encouraging others to work alongside him in appreciation and financial assistance. The large and lavish locations such as the Van Gogh Museum or Museum of Modern Art may thrive despite decreased support, but others will not if individuals like Baryn Futa don’t help.
