Explanation:
"... those promoting art at local level" (?) - as it's a "Kunstverein"

or "... between the art market/market for art and the grass-roots venues for art appreciation"

(Maybe someone can play around with these and help me get off 480 points - I'm hoping to retire when I hit the big 5.)

comment on bridge-building


Explanation:
