US-POLITICS-BANKRUPTCY-ARTS-MUSEUM
TO GO WITH AFP STORY by Mira OBERMAN, US-politics-bankruptcy-arts-museum
Museum patrons chat in the ornate opening gallery of the Detroit Institute of Arts on October 2, 2013. The museum could be forced to close, if its world-class collection is allowed to be even partially sold to pay off Detroit's creditors during the city's bankruptcy proceedings. Founded in 1885, the museum has amassed a world-class collection through the patronage of press barons and auto industry giants. It was the first American museum to buy works by Van Gogh and Matisse. It has one of just two works by the Dutch master Bruegel that can be viewed in the United States. AFP PHOTO/MIRA OBERMAN
