The Bermuda National Gallery [BNG] and the Honorary Consul of France in Bermuda is getting set to host a remarkable presentation by Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer David Turnley on Tuesday, March 4, starting at 7.00am at Earl Cameron Theatre in City Hall.

A spokesperson said, “Entitled Exposing Humanity, Mr. Turnley’s presentation will take the audience on a powerful photo-journey around the world. This presentation, which has the support and encouragement of many of the island’s social partners, continues the BNG’s agenda of locating the social context of art.
