KENNETH TIN-KIN HUNG

Official website of artist and designer Kenneth Tin-Kin Hung

My “Because Washington Is Hollywood For Ugly People” video is chosen by Rachel Wolff of New York Magazine as the top art video of 2007. Here’s what she said:

“Kenneth Tin-Kin Hung’s satirical animation was one of the most-talked-about works in Postermasters’ summer group show, “Not Your Parents MTV.â€? Given Hung’s psychedelic palette, and the use of familiar faces, politically potent imagery (a Bush-headed Jennifer Aniston, an Obama-headed Borat, Big Macs, Yodas, Saddam on a skateboard, Osama on the cross), low-tech animation, and a biting slam-poetry soundtrack (plus background music courtesy of M.C. Paul Barman), it’s no wonder why.“

Thank You So Much! Also Big Congratulations to my friend Marisa Olson, her 96-00-04-08 is also in the lists too!

Also some other news:
