SCHOOL BOY ART
(2004 / Super-8 / USA / 10:50 min.)
Franz' dream is to attend a real art
school. He draws religiously and packs his sketchbook with anatomy studies
in preparation for Portfolio Day. Will the inscrutable Professor pass or fail
him?
Featuring the high school sketchbooks of artist Mario
Ybarra, Jr. and original music by D'Argento (artist Anna
Sew Hoy & musician Giles
Miller) SCHOOL BOY ART has contributed to the intersecting discourses
on race, gender, sexuality, desire, and performance, particularly in the scholarship
of video artist and academic Nguyen
Tan Hoang.
