ICA Miami Launches ICA Speaks Series

The Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami (ICA Miami) will soon launch its artist lecture series called ICA SPEAKS to help foster the exchange of art and ideas.

From mid-August through May of 2022, the virtual and in-person events in the Miami Design District will feature a series of talks presented by artists featured in ICA Miami’s permanent collection. These include Isaac Julien and Lyle Aston Harris, as well as Stefanie Heinze (pictured, top), Louis Fratino (pictured, left), Ellen Lesperance, Liz Deschenes and Paul Mpagi Sepuya. There is no cost to attend the ICA SPEAKS series, but registration is required at ICAmiami.org/calendar.

“ICA Miami is committed to producing new scholarship and dialogue around contemporary art and timely issues,” says Alex Gartenfeld, Artistic Director of ICA Miami. “ICA SPEAKS creates a forum where members of our museum community engage with our collection by hearing from the artists themselves. We are proud that this series features today’s leading artists and figures whose works advance important and inclusive narratives of contemporary art.”
