Linz's FPÖ wants to privatise the Lentos Art Museum in order to renovate the city's budget. "The city should look for a private art sponsor or foundation that is willing to take over the Lentos building and at the same time commits itself to continuing the site as an art museum for several decades," said Michael Raml, city councillor, in a statement on Monday.
