Sell all of it!

 It’s getting crazy!!!

I have a solution for the controversial statues that many people want removed from public display. Because we cannot know what future attitudes will be towards the people or images that we represent now in public, therefore what we ought to do is sell all currently existing public statues and artwork to private entities, be they individual corporations or other organizations. They then shall have the freedom to display or not display the artwork, statues and the like in their private facilities.

Similarly no public funds shall be allocated for the purchase or commission of any future artwork or statue.
Should public entities separate themselves from art as they do from religion? Shall we sell all our paintings, other art, busts, and statues and allow private individuals and corporations to decide their fate? 

Yes, we should have a wall between arts and state.

Sell all of it. Close public art museums!

The portraits below are from a visit to a publicly funded museum a while ago.
