Garage Triennial of Russian Contemporary Art: artist list announced

Garage Triennial artist

With less than one month to go before the opening, the Garage Museum of Contemporary Art announced the much-anticipated list of sixty-eight artists who will take part in the first Garage Triennial of Russian Contemporary Art. As the largest-ever survey of current art practice from across Russia, this project represents the newest development in an extensive program that Garage is undertaking to build stronger infrastructure for contemporary Russian art.

Over the last year, a curatorial team of six has visited forty-two Russian cities and towns that have vibrant creative environments, from the Pacific to the Arctic oceans, crossing eleven time zones, in climates that range from the subtropical to subarctic. Having met with more than 200 artists and artists’ groups during their research trips, the curators identified seven “vectors” through which the current art life of the country can be broadly understood.

In anticipation of the Triennial opening, Garage has launched a bilingual web-based directory of contemporary Russian artists and local art scenes, which is the first iteration of a multi-phase research project into the country’s art scene. It will continue to be updated with information in the coming weeks, months, and eventually years in anticipation of future Triennials.
