Mission

Remember the artist.

Vision

Ongoing recognition and reward for the artist's work.

Overview

IAM seeks out artists who have devoted their lives to the creation of a body of work that has yet to obtain the level of appreciation and discourse warranted by their genius.

IAM is a living archive of works by conceptual, performance, sound and visual artists.

IAM ensures that underrepresented artists of outstanding merit obtain visibility and recognition.  We provide secure, intelligent care of artists’ works while documenting, positioning and promoting each collection.

IAM offers unprecedented public access to each artist’s work. With an emphasis on long-lasting artistic integrity, IAM presents an opportunity for ongoing study and appreciation of every artist within the archive.

IAM is devoted to the artist’s prominence in society, the growth of the archive, and the evolution of the organization’s cultural contribution.
