ArtsProfessional is sad to report that John Matthews has died at the age of 57. John’s long and pioneering career in the arts is marked in particular by the creation in 1983 of Cardiff Arts Marketing, which became the model for co-operative marketing agencies across Britain, and the formation ten years later of the Arts Marketing Association. Since 2008 he had been Chair of Chapter Arts in Cardiff and helped steer the venue through a successful redevelopment project. Further tributes to John will be published online soon.
