Vincent Schier

(Germany)

Vincent Schier is a curator and art historian living and working in Berlin, Germany, and elsewhere. He is the Artistic Director at Kunstverein Göttingen and has been working at the Kunsthaus Dresden, the GfZK in Leipzig and at the art association nGbK in Berlin. Schier works in institutions and as a freelancer, appreciating both. In his curatorial work he is interested in collaborative and collective working methods, which is why he keeps returning to working in groups. He is a member of the curatorial collective RealismusStudio and of other groups, which sometimes don’t even have a name. Also, in his exhibition making practice, Schier’s main focus lies on the individual in relation to societ(ies) and space—physical and social space as well as emotional space.

Vincent Schier is a participant of the TURN2 Residencies’ programme.
