Overview

IMMA Collection: Freud Project 2016 - 2021 surrounds a long-term loan of 50 works by one of the greatest realist painters of the 20thcentury, Lucian Freud (1922-2011). It features a selection of 30 of the artist's finest paintings, and 20 works on paper, on loan to the IMMA Collection from a number of private collections. During this unique five-year project IMMA will create a space for looking, thinking, and learning with programmes that will provoke new reflection on Freud's work and what it means in the contemporary world. In the first year all 50 works will be on display in Dublin, while subsequent exhibitions will also include works and new commissions by other contemporary artists in response to Freud, revealing exciting new perspectives on his work for artists and audiences today. This publication represents the first step in this process, featuring responses from 31 Irish and International artists who were invited to respond to the open question of what Freud means to them today.
