Helen Sacoor

Helen Sacoor is a curator whose work has engaged with the intersection of art, books, and institutional practice. Co-curator of Bibliomania (1998–1999) with Simon Morris, Sacoor helped shape a project that asked artists, writers, and theorists to make their reading visible — turning the bibliography into exhibition material and the bookshelf into a form of self-portraiture.
