Galeri Petronas was established in Kuala Lumpur in 1993 to provide an avenue for artists, both Malaysian and foreign, to display their works towards meeting and nurturing the growing interest of the Malaysian public in visual arts. Located at the base of the PETRONAS Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Galeri Pertronas is owned and funded by Petroliam Nasional Berhad (PETRONAS), the national oil and gas corporation of Malaysia. Petronas set up the gallery to help promote the development an preservation of art in Malaysia. The corporation believes in, and supports, efforts towards the development of holistic society, one in which material wealth is matched by a rich cultural heritage and the well-being of the people. The activities of Galeri Petronas are manifestations of this corporate philosophy. Petronas promotes the development and preservation of art by providing the gallery as a venue for art displays, sponsoring documentations and publications on mainly Malaysian art, establishing a resource centre on art within the gallery to encourage research, hosting local and foreign artists as resident artists at the gallery to encourage exchanges and dialogues, and organising public programmes to promotes appreciation and understanding of art. Galeri Petronas offers a wide range of services in addition to temporary exhibitions and supporting art programmes.
