Collier Schorr is an important post-feminist artist and photographer, who came out of New York’s Lower East Side scene in the late ’80s — and one of the rare artists of her generation to refuse the star label. Collier’s works have always challenged gender politics and created psycho-sexual tension. She has spent every summer of the past 20 years working in the southern German town of Schwäbisch Gmünd photographing young males — in vintage military uniforms — and the German landscape. Recently she trained her lens on her upbringing in Queens, focusing on the life of her father, a photographer and editor of car magazines. Collier is also an excellent fashion photographer, finally portraying women, in preparation for a forthcoming book. I talked to her about her artistic development.
