the louvre is going to permanently loan part of its collection to a new branch office in, of all places, abu dhabi. why? for money. naturally. so as to fund "new acquisitions" (don't laugh). they say.

this is crazy. those works of art are the patrimony of western civilization. they have no business being on saracen territory.

art is a fixed commodity. the real thing stopped being produced long ago. art is finite and precious. it's not to be given away.

where is french cultural chauvanism when you really need it?
