Gabriele Schor
Curator of "The Feminist Avant-Garde of the 1970s: Works from the SAMMLUNG VERBUND Collection, Vienna."
Founding director of the SAMMLUNG VERBUND Collection, Vienna. Gabriele Schor studied philosophy in Vienna and San Diego. She worked at the Tate Gallery, London; was the arts correspondent for the Neue Zürcher Zeitung; and had lectureships for modern and contemporary art at universities in Austria. Since 2004, she has been Director of the SAMMLUNG VERBUND collection, which she has built from the beginning with two main focuses: the perception of spaces and places as well as the feminist avant-garde of the 1970s. Schor coined the term ‚Feminist Avant-Garde‘ and brought it into the art-historical discourse.
