Pipo Nguyen-duy gave a lecture for AIPAD’s “Depth of Field” series alongside gallery director, Brian Paul Clamp. From AIPAD:

From 1995 – 1998, Nguyen-duy worked on his series “AsSimulation”—what he describes as a tragic comedy dealing with race, sex, and gender with respect to cultural assimilation. These staged black-and-white selfportrait photographs utilize traditional Asian theatrical and visual language to imitate and interpret Renaissance and Baroque paintings and sculpture.
