Eight years later, there is growing disquiet about the new construction, about the Gallery&#8217;s programs and the lack of ongoing funding, and about the State&#8217;s overall cultural requirements in the era of pandemics and economic crisis.<\/p>\n<p><em>Culture Heist<\/em> provides the background.
