Open storage

Open storage presents works from the collection of Russian contemporary art of the 1980s–2020s which Garage began forming in 2024.

The functional architecture of the storage facility is inspired by the building’s modernist architecture. The mobility of the grid elements reflects the fact that the collection process is not complete and is open to development. The display of works changes and expands as the collection grows, and the distance between the acquisition of new works and their display becomes minimal. This way, viewers can trace the forming of the new Museum collection.

Open storage is available for independent visits, as part of guided and mediation tours, and as part of the Museum’s inclusive program. The project is accompanied by an extensive public program, which includes lecture series, classes for children, and much more.
