The air conditioners that were produced at this once famous Factory back in the Soviet times helped to cool and freshen up the air virtually in every apartment in Azerbaijan and the neighboring Republics. Unfortunately, the collapse of Soviet Union also put production to a halt. Thanks to the enthusiasm of the artists those empty production facilities, workshops and plants will be reanimated. They will be given new colors and dynamics as the memory of the glorious past is revived.
The Factory was revamped by a team of young artists that included Anar Shamsiyev, Ruslan Agazade, Arif Amirov, Arzuman Mirzasoy, Aydan Mirzayeva, Ayna Musayeva, Butunay Hagverdiyev, Chingiz Mehtiyev, Elturan Mammadov, Elvin Nabizade, Emin Azizbayli, Fakhri Gurbanli, Farida Rajabova, Farkhad Farzaliyev, Fidan Abdullazade, Günel Eva & Zachary Guy-Frank, Habib Saher, Irina Berezina, Lala Gasim, Mekhriban Shamsaddinskaya, Narmin Humbatova and Ali Huseyn Bagirov, Nezrin Mammadova & Diana Haciyeva, Samir Salahov, Sayyara Neymatova, Vusala Abdullayeva and Zamir Suleymanov.
This project was conceived and produced by YARAT Contemporary Art Organisation and curated by an artist Faig Ahmed, who previously represented his country at the International Biennale of Contemporary Art in Venice and Islamic Art Festival in Sharjah.
Bank Technique supports the project within the framework of "Artım" program.
The opening will take place on October 5th at 18:00.
Address: 10, Alesker Gaibov st.
