IMTwentyOne marks IMT Gallery’s 21st anniversary with a benefit exhibition and online auction, bringing together over 100 unique works by emerging to established artists such as Amanda Beech, Adam Chodzko, Benedict Drew, Soyoung Hyun, Melanie Jackson, Kenji Lim, John Russell, Tai Shani, Nicola Singh, and Suzanne Treister.
Artists have been invited to create an original A4 work in any medium. Works including painting, drawing, ceramics, sculpture and prints will be exhibited at IMT Gallery in a democratic alphabetical hang, and made available via an online auction launching to coincide with London Gallery Weekend. Each work will have a starting bid of £50.
Participating artists include those IMT has previously collaborated with, alongside nominations by the gallery’s represented artists David Burrows, Plastique Fantastique, Maggie Roberts and Ra Tack, and curators the gallery has worked with over the years, including Mark Rohtmaa-Jackson, Kirsten Cooke and Nicole Sansone. The project reflects on the artists, conversations and projects that have shaped the gallery over the past two decades, and offers a wide range of current practices presented by an international community of artists.
All works in IMTwentyOne have been kindly donated by the participating artists. Proceeds from the auction will support IMT’s future curatorial and educational programmes.
