The six international artists shortlisted for the UK’s biggest contemporary art prize open exhibitions in venues across Wales today. Themes of home, belonging, displacement and community come to the fore in the 11th edition of Artes Mundi, which invites artists to address the human condition in their bid for the £40,000 prize.
The multi-venue format introduced for the award’s 10th edition continues to evolve this year. A group show at the National Museum Cardiff complements in-depth solo presentations at four partner venues: Mostyn, a public art gallery in Llandudno; Aberystwyth Arts Centre; Glynn Vivian Art Gallery, Swansea and Chapter Art Centre, Cardiff.
