Garage Museum of Contemporary Art will provide free guided tours for visitors with intellectual disabilities around Pavel Pepperstein’s exhibition The Human as a Frame for the Landscape.
These specially adapted tours of Pavel Pepperstein’s show will introduce visitors with intellectual disabilities to the artist’s practice spanning from the 1970s until today.
Pavel Pepperstein (b. 1966, Moscow) is an artist, writer, musician, and art theorist who spent his childhood years in the circle of Moscow conceptualists many of whom worked as book illustrators. For the first time, Garage is displaying drawings and albums created by Pepperstein as a teenager.
The exhibition unfolds as a journey through rooms/myths, each of them immersing the viewer in the artist’s fantasies. Most of Pepperstein’s works combine text with image aiming to mystify and reinterpret historical events and literature.
To prepare for the tour, please use our social story to become acquainted with key aspects of visiting an exhibition as part of a group of other spectators.
Concluding the excursion, participants will have the chance to engage in a workshop where they will create their own works inspired by what they have seen at the exhibition.
Please note that the exhibition The Human as a Frame for the Landscape has an age recommendation of 18+.
