Metropolitan Museum: New Greek and Modern Galleries


As you may have read in the news, a new section on Classic art has been opened in the Metropolitan Museum of New York. Works have been collected by buying sculptures and other item to private collectors. What do you think about this? Do you think it is a good way of acquiring art?

  1. I think that it is not the best way of acquiring art but it is difficult discover new things of classic art. But, in the other hand, it is a way so that private collections can be sawn

  2. Unfortunally, there are a lot of art pieces that can´t be seen, because they belong to private collectors but it is difficult to find the best way to get these pieces back to the countries they come from. But the question I make myself everytime I hear about this is: where all this private collectors get this pieces, where or whom did they paid for them?......
