Garage Screen was launched in 2012 to bring audiences the best of Russian and international features, documentaries, experimental films, the latest festival releases, and animation.
Garage Screen film showings currently take place in the Museum auditorium.
From 2017 to 2021, films were shown in temporary summer cinemas on Garage Square in Gorky Park. From 2018, the design of the temporary cinema was decided through an architectural competition.
The Museum also organizes the Garage Screen Film Festival in Russia and CIS countries and distributes films. As a film distributor, Garage Screen focuses on new cinema and the history of film in dialogue with contemporary art and culture.
The curator of Garage Screen is cinema historian, film archivist, and author for the journals Iskusstvo kino and Seans Alisa Nasrtdinova.

Garage Screen Film Festival
The annual festival organized within Garage’s film program and held in Russian cities and CIS countries acquaints audiences with the best recent pictures that haven’t been widely screened in theaters. Launched in 2018 to celebrate Garage’s tenth anniversary, the festival has since become an integral part of the Museum’s all-round collaboration with some leading regional and foreign cultural institutions. Over its existence, the program’s focus has shifted from films on art and contemporary culture to the screenings of festival cinema premiered in the previous season.Film Distribution
The Garage Screen team has been distributing films since 2019. Through its distribution activity Garage Screen reflects on the newest cinema and the history of film in a dialogue with contemporary art and culture. The Garage Screen program concentrates on “cross-over” pictures that play a significant role within the art process happening here-and-now. The debut production released by Garage was Anton Zhelnov’s documentary Poor Folk. Kabakovs which portrays the life and practice of Ilya and Emilia Kabakov—the classics of Russian contemporary art.
