Over the past 10 years, Garage has developed from an exhibition space to a valued artistic institution. Today, Garage is not only a place for exhibitions, but also a grant program for artists, courses and a master’s program at the HSE, its own publishing house and library, cinema and lecture programs. Its activities significantly affect the cultural education in Eurasia.
Garage Museum of Contemporary Art
This spring Garage has established its Endowment Fund so that any person or company could support the Museum. The income is accumulated by the fund and then being invested. Investment income received will be used to finance Museum projects or be reinvested. Those funds which are part of the endowment will remain there and be used to generate income. It is planned that the fund will help the Museum to generate capital for their work for decades to come.
The Leta team considers Garage to be one of the most important cultural phenomena. It’s not just a Museum of Contemporary Art – it’s one of the most modern museums in the world in its core. All of us constantly visit the exhibitions, schedule mettings in Garage Cafe and consider the building in Gorky Park to be our “place of power”. When we discovered that the Museum creates an endowment for its own sustainable development, the decision was made literally within 24 hours. Paperwork took two more weeks – and now, under the agreement with the Museum, until 2024 Leta will monthly transfer a portion of the funds from our income to the Garage Museum’s Endowment Fund.
We are sincerely proud that we have the opportunity to make our contribution to the development of contemporary and modern art. The “Garage” team is a group of people who are passionate about their work and create projects of amazing power and meaning. We are sure that there are still thousands of victories and achievements ahead ;-)
Amber is one of the oldest gemstones people know since paleolithic era. There have been many theories regarding amber origin. Roman author Pliny the Elder (1st century AD) was the first scientist to prove that amber is a fossilized tree resin. He paid attention to the fact that when burning amber emits smoke and smells with resin. Today organic origin of amber is generally recognized.
Leta is committed to completely zeroing its carbon footprint by 2028. This will be achieved by eliminating paper, reducing energy consumption in manufacturing and stores, using electric transport for delivery, and participating in sustainable forest management programs.
It’s been a year since we’ve released our ROMA collection, a modern interpretation of ancient Roman architecture. As the end of this unusual and weird year finally approaches, we think it’s finally time to present something new. The Atlas collection became a story about architecture created by nature on our planet.
Today, at the midpoint of the fall, we are pleased to show our next collection. For the first time in the history of Leta, it is made of gold. Una is the contemporary heritage of Malevich. The items of the collection recreate Malevich’s recognizable suprematist compositions.
