Artes Mundi works in partnership with a large number and wide range of organisations across the public, private, arts and education sectors.
It was established in 2002 with the support of the Welsh Assembly Government, the City and County of Cardiff, Arts Council Wales, BBC Wales and the Derek Williams Trust. The Artes Mundi Exhibition is organised in association with Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales and presented at the National Museum Cardiff. All remain key partners and, for Artes Mundi 3, are joined by principal sponsor St David’s 2, Gerald Eve and Merrill Lynch Global Wealth Management.
