Introduction
A pioneering film artist and theoretician as well as an influential curator of avant-garde film, Peter Kubelka co-founded the Österreichisches Filmmuseum (Austrian Film Museum) with Peter Konlechner in 1964. In 1970, he was involved in the creation of the Anthology Film Archives in New York, for which he designed the "Invisible Cinema", which was replicated at the Film Museum in Vienna in 1989. Although Kubelka never sat on the FIAF Executive Committee, he attended a number of FIAF Congresses, where his lively contribution was always stimulating to the other delegates. He was elected Honorary Member of FIAF in 2006.
