Anh Dao is a curator and cultural worker based between New York City and Saigon. She currently serves as Assistant Curator at Galerie Quynh, where she works with contemporary artists in Vietnam and the diaspora.
Her curatorial practice centers on questions of affect, embodiment, and institutional writing, exploring how personal experience shapes knowledge production in exhibition-making. Her writing engages with autotheory, feminist practices, and the politics of the Western canon — drawn to the raw, confessional registers shared by zine culture, riot grrrl, and critical theory alike.
Anh Dao holds a BFA from Parsons School of Design and a BA from The New School, and will begin her MA in Curatorial Studies at the Center for Curatorial Studies, Bard College in 2026.
