President of the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts, and formerly Director of the Museum for over fifty years Irina Antonova will discuss with Garage Museum Director Anton Belov what dedicating a life to art means and how to inspire those around you by just doing your job.
Irina Antonova and Anton Belov will share their experience of how they found a space for art inside themselves, as well as how to manage cultural institutions, shape the perception of art and, ultimately, create history. The speakers will also discuss the importance of mutual influences between different generations of audiences and the interdependence between classical and contemporary art.
