By fighting to fend off claims like those from the Nepali government and the Grünberg family, the Art Institute's leaders stand to lose more than a few disputed artworks. They risk tarnishing this treasured museum's reputation as one of the foremost repositories of the world's collective expression of beauty, truth and humanity.
Art Institute’s reputation has already been tarnished by former payroll manager who embezzled more than 2 million dollars over a 12-year period. And let’s not forget the firing of docents at the Art Institute. Dedicated volunteers were dismissed for no good reason. Every major organization/school system/museum in Chicago has been tarnished by scandals and corruption. It is the Chicago way.
Yup, I weep no tears for the Art Institute because of those reasons… another former gem (I was a proud member for many years) gone to woke “seed”, so screw ’em…!!!

So the Institute that virtue signaled for all to see and hear by ceremoniously canning long time employees because activists told them to are refusing to return property to its rightful owners. How progressive/ Marxist.
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
