Garage invites Russian and international researchers who write about Soviet and Russian art to apply for the grant program Archive Summer.
Launched by Garage Research in 2018, Archive Summer offers professional researchers selected through an open call an opportunity to work with materials from Garage Archive Collection for one month.
This year, Garage is accepting applications that reflect any of the subjects covered in Garage Archive Collection, which includes personal archives gathered by some of the major figures in the history of Soviet and Russian art: artists, curators, art historians, and collectors. An important part of the archive are archives of various cultural institutions, including the Museum’s own institutional archive. Garage media archive holds over 10,000 audio and video recordings covering both key and little-known events from the history of art since the 1950s. Most of the archives in the in the collection are presented on the website of the Russian Art Archive Network (RAAN).
