Public
Art Wales/Celf Gyhoeddus Cymru
CBAT The Arts & Regeneration Agency has merged with
Cywaith Cymru . Artworks Wales to form
Public Art Wales/Celf Gyhoeddus Cymru
The formation of Public Art Wales, the largest public art organisation
in the UK, means that Wales will be a leading force in the development
of public art practice both in the UK and internationally by
procuring a primary role for artists in regeneration schemes.
Public Art Wales will be taken forward by Executive Director Wiard
Sterk (formerly Director of CBAT), alongside the Aberystwyth based
architect Harry James as Chair, as well as the highly skilled and
dedicated staff who have transferred into the new organisation
from Cywaith Cymru . Artworks Wales and CBAT.
Public Art Wales is currently operating from two offices, those
formerly used by CBAT and Cywaith Cymru. Artworks Wales. During
the month of July we will move to a single site at Sovereign Quay
in Cardiff Bay.
In the interim the contact details for staff from either organisation
will remain the same and we will endeavour to inform you of any
changes that are made in due course. In the meantime, we would
like to take this opportunity to thank you for your consideration
and support.
Please note that Public Art Wales is a working title that is subject
to a branding process lead by the design agency The Bureau for
Visual Affairs.
