Noor Alé is a curator, art historian, and writer whose exhibitions and roles span international contemporary art institutions. Her curatorial practice examines the intersections of contemporary art with land relations, cosmologies, and geopolitics pertaining to the Global Majority. Of particular interest are the Americas and their histories of oceanic diasporas, trade routes, and knowledge exchanges. Through a relational, transcultural and transhistorical lens her work unearths convergences that foster common ground across geographical and ideological divides.

Currently, she is the Associate Curator at the Moody Center for the Arts at Rice University, Houston. She has held positions at the Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery, Toronto; the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa; the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Abu Dhabi Project, New York; and Art Dubai. She has curated independently, written for exhibition catalogues and arts journals, and has been invited to speak about contemporary art at universities and conferences.
