This is your last chance to experience Turner Prize nominee Tino Sehgal's pioneering work This Situation at IMMA as it runs into it's final weekend. A not to be missed experience! 

This Situation offers Irish gallery-goers the first opportunity to experience Sehgal’s approach to art, in which he responds to and engages with gallery visitors through the use of conversation, sound and movement.

His recent project in Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall was described by The Guardian’s Adrian Searle as the defining art work of the year!
