Rivington Place formally known as Iniva creates exhibitions, publications, multimedia, education and research projects, designed to bring the work of artists from culturally-diverse backgrounds to the attention of the widest possible public.

Anchored in the diversity of contemporary British culture and society, Rivington Place engages with culturally-diverse practices and ideas, both local and global.
Rivington Place invites artists and audiences to question assumptions about contemporary art and ideas. It acts as a catalyst for making these debates and artworks part of mainstream culture.

Working collaboratively with a wide range of
individuals and organisations Rivington Place aims:

To promote the work of artists, academics and curators from a plurality of cultures and cultural backgrounds

To increase knowledge and understanding of contemporary visual arts in the United Kingdom and abroad, with special emphasis on introducing new audiences to innovative art practice and scholarship of the highest order

To extend the intellectual, social and geographical boundaries of debate on contemporary visual art

To create opportunities for dialogue, collaboration and exchange of ideas and information about contemporary visual art practice between different cultures and continents
