April 24, 1975: Mira Schor, dress paintings
Mira Schor came to Halifax in the fall of 1974 to teach painting. As a New York feminist woman painter, no one knows quite what to make of her- she is tough, hip and wasn’t afraid to say what she thought. She has been making these paintings on paper that are shaped like skirts. They were wrinkled with torn edges- mostly warm greys. Very beautiful.
