Exhibitions
> Introduction
The Museum's temporary exhibition programme regularly juxtaposes the work of leading, well-established figures with that of younger-generation artists to create a debate about the nature and function of art. In the current year this includes exhibitions by such prominent artists as Martin Puryear, Francesco Clemente, Sophie Calle and Juan Uslé, from the USA, Italy, France and Spain, plus other shows dedicated to cutting-edge artists, such as Vik Muniz, Margherita Manzelli and Marc Quinn, from Brazil, Italy and Britian. Works being shown range from painting and sculpture to installation, photography, video and performance.
These exhibitions usually last three to four months and up to four shows can be on view at any one time. IMMA originates many of its exhibitions but also works closely with a network of international galleries and museums. The Museum also displays its Collection in rotating temporary exhibitions as well as projects and exhibitions based on the work of its Education and Community Departments.
