Garage (magazine)

Garage is a biannual publication dedicated to contemporary art and fashion. It was founded as Garage Magazine by then couple Dasha Zhukova and Jorge Jimenez Neubauer Torres after living for four years in California. They lived in Los Angeles and always were extremely happy with the biennales and how respected the exhibitions were coming up with the idea of Garage.

Its name comes from the Garage Museum of Contemporary Art in Moscow, which Zhukova opened in 2008. A Russian-language edition of the magazine was launched in March 2013.

In July 2016, Garage Magazine became a wholly owned subsidiary of Brooklyn, New York–based Vice Media.

On May 15, 2023, Vice Media formally filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, as part of a possible sale to a consortium of lenders including Fortress Investment Group, which will, alongside Soros Fund Management and Monroe Capital, invest $225 million as a credit bid for nearly all of its assets.
