This is a further benefit of our Corporate Membership, and offers you the opportunity to rent original works of art from our internationally acclaimed Bermudiana Collection.

The Collection consists of original artwork by overseas artists and all share the common theme of Bermuda. This historical and cultural collection encompasses over 1,000 works of art including oil paintings, watercolours, drawings, etchings, lithographs and photographs. We have chosen a selection from amongst these treasures to be available for corporate rental.

A fee of 10% of the value of the painting is charged for rental. If we need to use the rented work for an exhibition we will replace it with a work of equivalent value for the duration of the exhibition. Paintings may be changed once a year. Insurance is covered by Masterworks.

If you would like to rent a painting please contact Elise Outerbridge at 236-2950 or mworks2@logic.bm
