Learn & EngageSlow Art At IMMA

Whether you are a formal learner, or just curious to find out more, we can help you to engage with creativity, conceptual thinking and cultural meaning at IMMA.

Slow Art At IMMA

Slow Art encourages us to slow down and delve deeper by spending time looking closely at one artwork, or a small selection of work. By giving ourselves time, we can make meaningful connections with art, often discovering new ways of looking at the world and prompting interesting questions. At IMMA, we have a selection of ways that you can try a Slow Art experience. See below for more details.

Slow Art Sessions invite you to take a close look at artworks from IMMA’s Collection and Exhibition Programme in free, welcoming, conversational tours. 

If you’d rather try slow art on your own, at a time that suits you and with an artwork you choose, why not listen to our Slow Art Soundtrack, available on the IMMA Horizons Soundcloud HERE. 

Our Slow Art Video Series invites you to take a short, virtual tour of selected artworks from IMMA’s Collection and grounds – check them out by clicking HERE.
