This summer marks the 10th anniversary of the Garage Museum of Contemporary Art in Moscow. Founded in 2008 by Dasha Zhukova and Roman Abramovich, Garage is the first philanthropic institution in Russia to create a comprehensive public mandate for contemporary art and, over the past 10 years, has seen its audience grow from 10,000 visitors in its first year to over 700,000 visitors last year.

The Museum’s summer season projects look back at the past, explore the present, and strive for the future. Garage visitors can explore the world of football with renowned fashion photographer Juergen Teller, find out how people spent their spare time in Moscow in the 1960s, take a new look at sound and hearing, see how 3D printing works, and discover how Museum visitors have changed over the past ten years.

Viacheslav Koleichuk: Atom 1967/2018

06.05 – 26.08

Next to the Museum building, visitors can see a monumental kinetic sculpture. Over fifty years since it was first seen in Moscow, Garage curators worked with Russian kinetic artist Viacheslav Koleichuk to reconstruct this famous work. The best time to experience Atom 1967/2018, with its playful lighting and laconic sound, is once the sun sets, maybe after a movie evening at Garage Screen.

 

Infinite Ear

Infinite Ear

08.06 – 02.09

Visitors to the unique sound environment of Infinite Ear can hear, feel, understand, imagine, and make sounds using methods they have never come across before. In this project, hearing is not a physical parameter but an artistic quantity. Performer-mediators will help you to understand the exhibition and have a new experience of sound. Their tools include healing herbs, Tarot cards, and pieces of fabrics.

Infinite Ear

08.06 – 02.09

A performance in the Museum’s Cloakroom, shadow theater, and the story of Garage in numbers and pictures: all these projects are dedicated to the most important participant in any event taking place at Garage, the visitor. Artist Ekaterina Muromtseva, members of Theater of Mutual Operations, and Garage staff produced a detailed analysis of the Museum’s audience and created unusual “portraits” of our visitors. You can find them throughout the Museum.

IAM

IAM

06.05 – 26.08

The radically experimental exhibition IAM asks important questions: what is the museum of the future, how might it look, and how can it be transformed from an exhibition space into a place in which events bring together aesthetic, emotional, intellectual, and sensory experiences.

“Did You Have a Good Time?” Vremena Goda Café since 1968

08.06 – 02.09

Fifty years ago, the Vremena Goda café opened in Gorky Park, in the building where Garage is now located. It quickly became a key Moscow location, not only for jazz concerts and family days out, but also for dates. Throughout the summer visitors can experience the atmosphere of this once fashionable place and compare how people had fun in the 1960s and now.
