CP Foundation was established in 2001 out of grave concerns about the increasing hegemony of certain trends in the world art forum.

CP Foundation envisions a world art scene in which democratic principles can flourish and plurality is possible in a dynamic that is inclusive instead of exclusive. On this basis it aims to contribute to the widening of the world's art platform by bringing realities to the fore which have so far been overshadowed by the hegemony of a few.
