Biography
Nguyen Tan Hoang is a video artist whose work interrogates forms of desire in queer Asian male identities, Vietnamese diasporic cultural production, and Asian American popular culture. His short experimental videos have screened nationally and internationally in venues such as New York’s MOMA, the Musée National d’Art Moderne at the Centre Georges Pompidou, and The Getty Center. His critical writings have appeared in Porn Studies, Vectors: Journal of Culture and Technology in a Dynamic Vernacular, GLQ, and Resolutions 3: Video Praxis in Global Spaces. His book, A View from the Bottom: Asian American Masculinity and Sexual Representation (Duke UP, 2014), looks at the depiction of gay Asian bottomhood in film, video, and the Internet. He has programmed film, video, and performance work for a variety of international film festivals and other venues. He is Associate Professor of English and Film Studies at Bryn Mawr College.
