Name
One of the key rules is to be honest.
While choosing the name, we wanted to reflect it.
Since everybody was calling it Garage, there was no reason to call the club Paradiso or something.
And while one of the original ideas was to make multi-purpose art space (space as a room),
the name Space:Garage popped up. Of cause it gets a whole new meaning, when you say it.
But the task completed: its nothing but truth.
Facts
- The big artwork behind the “stage” is the work of Maija Kursheva (”Gifts and Punishment”, 2007).
- The “corporate” present, what all the guest artists recieve is the soviet era emergency “water in the can”.
With the idea, that water have a memory, we’re giving away a 240ml of memory.
