Arturo

"Oh… I dabble… but I'm no Sander Cohen…"

- Arturo

Arturo is an artist living in Rapture and the owner of The Gallery of the Artist's Struggle on High Street.

Burial at Sea - Episode 1
It had come to private detective Booker DeWitt's and his client Elizabeth's attention, that the owner of The Gallery of the Artist's Struggle was invited to Sander Cohen's The Business of Rapture is Business, hosted on New Year's Eve of 1958 in Cohen's, Arturo being a sponsor. As they where not on the guest list, they did not have the required Invitation Mask to enter the club, which they needed to acquire information on the whereabouts of Sally: a missing young girl. They realize that no one will give over such an exclusive invitation and thus they had to resort to thievery.

Arturo can be found behind the counter of the gallery, reading Rapture Tribune, when DeWitt and Elizabeth enter the gallery. While DeWitt heads to the back room to search for the mask, Elizabeth detracts Arturo by pretending to be a customer, enthusiastic to learn about art. Arturo, being an expert, presents Sander Cohen's "Miasma" and an unnamed abstract work. Elizabeth, pretending to be impresses upon his art knowledge, asks if Arturo can show her some of his own work and as requested, he takes Elizabeth to his own painting. Acting overwhelmed, Elizabeth asks if she can come back tomorrow for further education, as she and DeWitt leaves the gallery.

If The Artist's Struggle is the last business the player enters (after The Golden Rule and Rapture Records), the Invitation Mask will be find here, forcing the player to steal it from Arturo.
