Due to building work Garage Shop is temporarily located in the Lab space. Garage Café is operating only in the zone by the windows.
Garage invites teens and young adults aged 14 to 22 to take part in the Art Club program, which focuses on creating participants’ own artworks or sketches.
Hosted by artist Anastasia Antipova, each club session is dedicated to a theme, technique or material used by contemporary artists.
The Art Club offers an opportunity not only to create original works and explore different mediums and techniques but also to meet other contemporary art lovers.
Anastasia Antipova is an artist. She graduated from the Joseph Backstein Institute of Contemporary Art (2022) and from the University of Fine Arts (HFBK) in Hamburg (2024). She was a resident of the 7th season of the Open Workshops program at Winzavod Center for Contemporary Art and a participant in the GES-2 grant program. She has taken part in the Geumgang Nature Art Biennale residency (2021, Republic of Korea), as well as residencies at SomoS Arts (Germany), WHITE LAB (Spain), and the Armenian Center for Contemporary Experimental Art.
Admission is free with advance registration.
At this opening session, participants will learn how contemporary artists such as Angela Glajcar, Li Hongbo, Isobelle Ouzman, and others work with paper—from drawing and painting to sculpture and large-scale installations. Participants will then experiment with the material and create their own artworks.
The group will explore examples of collage made by contemporary artists including Martha Rosler, Goshka Macuga, Patrick Simkins, and others, before creating their own collage pieces.
The third session will explain how travel influences the practice of contemporary artists and will introduce the group to travel-themed works by artists such as Hamish Fulton, Doug Aitken, Trevor Paglen, Tacita Dean, and others. During the practical part, participants will make their own works based around travel using available materials.
