IMMA is known for conserving and sharing its Irish National Collection of Modern and Contemporary Art. It aims to connect audiences and art, providing a space where contemporary life and contemporary art connect.
A range of podcasts and playlist feature material from IMMA’s live talks series and audio archive. This comprises the voices of many artists, curators and educators who discuss the ever-evolving contexts in which art is made.
IMMA Talks is a dynamic series of public talks, lectures and symposia that opens up conversations around their programme, taking one deeper into the thinking and making of contemporary art. In conjunction with their live programme, IMMA Talks holds recordings of past public talks. Over the years this has accumulated into a rich resource dedicated to contemporary art discourse and practice in Ireland.
The archive features the voices of many artists, curators and educators who discuss the ever-evolving contexts in which art is made.
The IMMA Audio Archive is testament to the museum’s formative years, and sheds light on many artworks comprising the IMMA Permanent Collection. Past talks are published on the IMMA Soundcloud Channel, where you can listen back to individual talks and themed playlists. While they work to transfer all of the Audio Archive, a selection of recordings is now available to listen back on the IMMA Soundcloud channel.
A range of playlists comprising a themed set of tracks are also available below for you to enjoy. See more here.
