COLLECTION EXHIBITION | ART AS AGENCY, IMMA IRISH MUSEUM OF MODERN ART, DUBLIN

Nil Yalter's installation titled Exile is a Hard Job, is on view at IMMA Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin, as part of their three-year collection exhibition Art as Agency until February 6, 2028. Through thematic, chronological, geographical, and media-based approaches, the exhibition examines how artworks connect across time and contexts, fostering new interpretations and relevance. Works from the 1960s to the 1980s evoke the foundational story of the Irish art world. While acknowledging the context of the modernist, predominantly male dominance of that era, the exhibition also spotlights the material innovation and socially engaged practices of others who persisted despite the relatively conservative status quo.
