Trailblazers

Trailblazers are a network of like-minded change makers who understand the essential role of art in contemporary life. Their united support enables emerging Queensland artists to realise transformative new work each year through the IMA’s  Platform program. Platform is an annual career-development program with proven impact on the profile and capacity building of early-career artists.

Commissioners Circle

The Commissioners Circle is a passionate group of patrons who commission new works annually by mid-career and leading Australian artists. In 2026, the Commissioners Circle supported Mandy Quadrio: Kukunna Wurraweena, the artist’s first major solo institutional exhibition. IMA will announce the recipient of our 2027 project in November 2026.

The Institute of Modern Art acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land upon which the IMA now stands, the Jagera, Yuggera, Yugarapul, and Turrbal people. We offer our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the first artists of this country. In the spirit of allyship, the IMA will continue to work with First Nations people to celebrate, support, and present their immense past, present, and future contribution to artistic practice and cultural expression.
