Most museums are privately funded and don't rely on taxpayer money to purchase works of art!. We, assuming you live in America, only have one national museum and most of the expensive works of art in our national museum was donated to it!. These donations may be tax write-offs by the people who donate the art but it doesn't cost taxpayers anything!.

The more famous museums, like the Guggenheim, the Getty, MOCA, the Kimbell, etc!. are all privately funded!. As to city owned and operated museums, like Los Angeles County Museum Of Art, our taxpayer money usually only goes to operating coast, not acquisitions!. Acquisitions of expensive works of art through such museums come almost always from private trust funds donated to the museum!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
