Elon Musk’s cost-cutting team has set its sights on the National Gallery of Art, as the billionaire’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency looks beyond gutting federal agencies to targeting pillars of the US’s cultural life.

Emissaries from Doge visited the premier cultural institution in Washington DC — which houses world-class collections of European and American art — on Thursday and met the museum’s leadership, according to people familiar with the matter, despite the gallery ostensibly operating at arm’s-length from the White House.

Doge’s intentions at the National Gallery are as yet unclear and a representative for the initiative did not respond to a request for comment.

Why mostly US and European Art?


Peoples that Europeans have raped and attempted genocide on from lands of Africa to Egypt to Asia were on earth much longer than racist genocidal Europe. They certainly have vibrant arts culture too.
