Garage Museum of Contemporary Art announces the second competition for the development of conceptual designs for 2020’s Garage Screen, a summer cinema located in Garage Square in front of the Museum. The competition’s goal is to provide architectural bureaus with an opportunity to submit their vision of a temporary pavilion to be installed in Gorky Park from spring to fall 2020. Applications will be accepted from 22 July through 16 August 2019.
The inaugural competition, held at the beginning of 2019, gathered over 130 applications from 24 Russian cities. Its geography and number of participants confirmed the importance of such initiatives for developing the local architectural community and the practice of building temporary structures. Throughout its history, Garage has on numerous occasions collaborated with Russian and international architectural studios on the construction of temporary pavilions within Gorky Park.
The winning design in 2019 — a pyramid with holographic facades, red velvet curtains, and modern projection and sound equipment — was developed by SYNDICATE (Moscow) and became one of Moscow’s most popular summer leisure spots.
