artists exploring a diversity of styles and media, and an ever-broadening audience turning out to see their work.

In the fourth part of a five-part series, The Royal Gazette profiles Masterworks Foundation Director Tom Butterfield and Bermuda National Gallery Director Laura Gorham and talks about their institutions' roles in developing art in Bermuda. Both launched in 1994, Masterworks' `Artists Up Front!...Street' series and the National Gallery's Biennial Exhibition seek to promote and benefit local artists and educate art audiences.

Next week, The Royal Gazette talks to artist Robert Bassett and art collector Barbara Lines about art appreciation.
