IMMA 2023 Programme

IMMA is thrilled to announce highlights of its 2023 programme, opening with a major retrospective by one of Ireland’s most accomplished and respected artists, Patricia Hurl.
Commenting on the programme, IMMA Director, Annie Fletcher said “It is a core mission of all of us IMMA that our programme provides a space for all generations and communities to engage with creativity, innovative cultural perspectives, and the art of our time. IMMA provides a unique space for exhibitions, discussions and programmes that reflect and address our current moment but also to create a moment to reflect on the past and the future.
She continued, “It is wonderful to kick start the year with a museum scale retrospective of the work of Patricia Hurl. This is exactly the kind of exhibition IMMA should be programming - not only bringing world class international practice to Ireland, but also mobilising all the museum’s resources to research and exhibit what is an outstanding Irish painting practice.”
The primary subject of Hurl’s work is the lived experiences of women, and this sets the scene for the strong female led exhibition programme taking place at IMMA this year. Alongside Hurl, other solo exhibitions by artists this year include Sarah Pierce, Howardena Pindell, Jo Baer and Anne Madden.
