- Baryn Futa is an art collector who has sought to help expose people to new types of art. He has an extensive art collection currently, but this was certainly not always the case. Once upon a time, not so very long ago, Baryn Futa had no idea that he was interested in the arts. In fact, it was not until Baryn Futa’s retirement that he really discovered his interest in the fine arts and acted on that discovery.
Baryn Futa: Cultivating Art Appreciation
September 17, 2021Baryn Futa firmly believes that the arts are a defining part of any culture. That makes the arts a key to preserving a culture. What that means is that it’s necessary to preserve the arts for future generations. It is the case 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.
That belief is what drives Baryn Futa’s status as a premier arts benefactor. When he retired and began working with the Denver Art Museum, 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.

A Proud Art Collector
March 20, 2021Baryn Futa is the proud owner of an art collection that is the envy of many a fine arts collector. This is because he has devoted a great deal of time and energy to the fine arts. He is a patron to dozens of artists and is especially interested in modern art. He places an emphasis on time-based media, meaning video. So, many of the pieces in his extensive collection reflect this. Futa occasionally loans pieces from his personal collection out to museums and exhibitions so that the general public can enjoy the pieces he so adores.
However, it would be a mistake to assume Baryn Futa has always been a collector. He did not actually begin learning about the fine arts until after his retirement. This just goes to show that it is never too late to take up an interest in the arts.
