Mina Cheon : Traveling to Dokdo, Dokdo Room, Sungkok Art Museum, Seoul, Korea 2012
Gallery 2 of the Sungkok Art Museum in Seoul Korea is the Dokdo Room, a room dedicated to looking at the relationships between neighboring Asian countries such as North and South Korea, and Japan and China, and images that are produced in media culture about each other's culture, including images of hatred. The main installation for the Dokdo Room is a three-channel video of Dokdo Island. The larger Dokdo installation that will include an actual three-dimensional replica of the island will be installed later at White Box in New York City as a separate project.
Mina Cheon's Traveling to Dokdo (three single-channel video art) includes video of going to Dokdo by boat, coming from Dokdo by boat, and of various virtual traveling to the island that is possible with today's technology such as visiting Dokdo via Google Earth, online 3D tour, and through Second Life. It also includes footages of the artist running the Dokdo Marathon in Seoul in October 2011 wearing a spy camera and capturing all the people running to celebrate Korea's national Dokdo Day, October 25. This video is juxtaposed with an overlapping inner video frame of the artist as URKorean, a Korean tiger avatar, roaming around Dokdo in Second Life. In between forty-five minutes video segments, there is a video short of the various Dokdo traveling with K-pop music soundtrack Daehanminguk, the 2010 Korea World Cup song by BEG, Rain, 4Minute and more.

Artist Cui Xian-ji finds his identity through art
최헌기 아티스트
No matter where you′re born, it′s always important to know and understand your own identity, and that doesn′t exclude artists.
Our Yim Yoonhee joins us with a look at one person who has done just that and more through his art.
Chinese-Korean artist Cui Xian-ji has been making his mark on the contemporary art world in Asia. I′ve referred to him by his Korean name, , but he is also recognized by his Chinese name and he′s recently opened a large solo exhibition at the Sungkok Art Museum . Have a look.
For most in this world, white is white, and black is black.
There may be different points of view, but the universal standards, the silent restrains linger, quietly, in the background, on the floor, all around us.
But for some in this world, those standards are just mere suggestions.
Artist Cui Xian Ji is one of those individuals.
Born and raised in China, but of Korean descent, Cui encountered a very successful career first in China and then in Korea.
He′s a painter, but he′s also a sculptor and an installation artist,... his works embodying elements of both Asian and Western influence,... but most strikingly, almost like a self portrait, they reveal glimpses into his identity as an artist.
INTERVIEW
When I was young, I was in Baekdusan Mountain in North Korea, and everything I saw was white as snow. It was so pure. I wanted to return to that moment, so I started making these artworks and, interestingly, they started revealing my background. Through my art, I found my Korean identity.
Cui′s heart beats to a different rhythm.
He refuses the ideas written out by other figures in this world, figures who captured the attention of millions of others.
Instead, for this artist, it′s important to maintain a pure and steady heart,... so that he can remove previous notions and customize his world.
Like the Mona Lisa,... a figure believed to be the image of beauty in the mainstream world,... but for Cui, it′s a chance to challenge the idea and create something new.
And while numbers were once believed to be non-negotiable, for Cui they′re yet another opportunity for finding his own identity as an artist and as an individual.
INTERVIEW
I wrote Korean Hanja for 10 years, but there came a point when the letters started resembling sperm. I realized that instead of thinking and planning, I create and look back later. That′s my process, and it also became my philosophy,... to follow my primal instinct. Now, it′s something I apply to other things as well, to preserve that original purity.
I made this with silicone, and then silicone became an object of interest, along with other aspects of my art,... allowing me to find my creativity and go against the grain of tradition.
Distinct scribbles, stark color contrasts, and a bit of the abstract, Cui has succeeded in creating his own identity.
He′s left his mark on this world,... inspiring others to want to do the same, but of course, in their own unique way.
He let you wri

Mina Cheon : Obama Dancing, 2012 Polipop (Political Pop Art)
Obama Dancing, 2012 Polipop (Political Pop Art) by Mina Cheon was first shown at Sungkok Art Museum, Seoul, Korea in the Obama Room, Polipop, solo-exhibition by Mina Cheon. This is one of the videos of the three channel video installation with rotating Styrofoam sculpture of Obama. The installation is installed in the Seoul Olympic Museum of Art in Seoul, South Korea between February 7 - March 31, 2013.
Obama Dancing appropriates a small action figure toy known as Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Obama and is made into a life-size Styrofoam statue, fabricated at the scale of President Barack Obama's physical height (6'11 or 186 cm). The statue stands on a turntable, rotating slowly in the gallery to music and a three channel video installation. Obama, as the Polipop (political pop art) icon of our time is highlighted both as monumental, larger than life figure, as well as easily accessible due to mass media and proliferation of his imagery in popular culture. The video channels is a series of animation made by the artist of Obama dancing the famous Ally McBeal (American television show series) baby dance to Oogachaka songs. The late 90s hit TV series Ally McBeal was famous for the appearance of a 3D animation baby, which became an instant television series hit, and sparked a new viral sensation of the animation and music before the time of the Internet. The artist was fascinated by the action figure (manufactured by Jailbreak Toys, Inc.) that came in a box with a white Obama toy that one can DIY paint. Obama as the first African-American President in the United States has raised continued discussion about race, culture, and politics in America, and the artist felt the need to distill some of the irony of a white Obama toy through this installation. This three channel video and sculpture installation was debuted with Cheon's mid-career solo exhibition Polipop at the Sungkok Art Museum earlier in 2012.
Mina Cheon (PhD, MFA) is a Korean-American new media artist, scholar, and educator who divides her time between Seoul, Korea, Baltimore, and New York. Cheon has exhibited internationally what she calls her Polipop (Political Pop Art), work that includes digital paintings, installation, performance, video, and interactive media. Cheon's artwork looks at geopolitical contested spaces and responds to Asia's relationship with the Western world in global media culture. Her projects have been shown in solo exhibitions at the Lance Fung Gallery, New York (2002), Insa Art Space, Art Council, Seoul (2005), C. Grimaldis Gallery, Baltimore (2008), Sungkok Art Museum, Seoul (2012), and Maryland Art Place in Baltimore (2012). In 2013, Cheon will also be showing at the Trunk Gallery in Seoul. Her artworks are in the permanent collections and archives of the Sungkok Art Museum in Seoul, contemporary art center Maryland Art Place in Baltimore, Hirshhorn Museum, Washington, D.C., the SSamzie Art Collection of Korea, and the international EVR (e-flux video rental).
Cheon is a full-time professor at the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) in Baltimore, Maryland. Cheon received her PhD in Philosophy of Media and Communications from the European Graduate School, European University for Interdisciplinary Studies, Switzerland, and published her book Shamanism + Cyberspace (Atropos Press, NY and Dresden) in 2009. Cheon also has an MFA in painting from the Hoffberger School of Painting (1999), MICA and another MFA in Imaging Digital Arts from the University of Maryland (2002). Her BFA is in painting from Ewha Woman's University (1996), Seoul, Korea where she was a visiting professor in 2011, and teaches during the summer.

Music: Dancing Baby song in Ally McBeal (American television show series) includes variations of Hooked on a Feeling and Oogachaka, sung first by B.J. Thomas and then by Blue Swede.
