Garage Museum of Contemporary Art and the Swiss publisher Lars Müller Publishers jointly present a reprinted edition of the journal Telehor. Created entirely by one author, László Moholy-Nagy, in 1936, Telehor is dedicated to the visual culture of the avant-garde. The famous artist, designer and Bauhaus professor discusses light, sound, editing, film and photo optics, as well as other experimental technologies, and the future of art. The facsimile edition of this single issue of the magazine was made with the participation of Clemens Gruber and Oliver A.I. Botar, who will present it in Moscow. A separate volume includes translations into Chinese, Hungarian, Spanish, and Russian, offered for the first time, as well as detailed commentaries. 

The Russian version is released by Garage publishing program in collaboration with Ad Marginem Press in the Minima Series.

The presentation also includes the screening of Moholy-Nagy's Congress of Architects documenting the 4th International Congress of Modern Architecture held in July 1933 on a liner traveling from Marseilles to Athens.
