Oil & art: BP announces new £7.5m deal with top UK arts institutions

The British Museum, National Portrait Gallery, Royal Opera House and Royal Shakespeare Company will renew their partnership with BP, according to a press release sent out this morning by the oil giant and long-time funder of the arts. BP has announced around £7.5 million in funding over five years beginning in 2018. It follows a similar deal made with these same institutions – plus Tate – in 2012, when BP committed around £10 million over five years.
