In the 21st century, the phenomenon of interaction in between fine art and design has become more increasingly prevalent. In this paper, the author has analyzed the major works of Spanish artist Eva $Armis{\dot{e}}n$ on a cultural criticism perspective, and has proposed a framework for a deeper understating of the artworks, which reflected the characteristics of contemporary art and culture such as deterritorialization of art and design. As a result, it has been found that the main theme of her artworks is about preferred attitude of a human being in relationship with others, unlike daily lives or innocence of childhood which are well-known subjects to the public. Her main female character could have been formed by blending all of her aesthetic reason, and characteristics of this era and cultural elements. It means that the area where the public enjoys the sense of beauty have been extending from the area of the beautiful to the beauty of universality. It has been found that deterriorialization phenomena, which is a characteristic of post-modern art and design work to dismantle an existing order, the repression, appeared in her work. However, several research areas of her works such as relationship between text and image or formative elements or aphorism etc. still have remained to be solved.

This paper attempts to "re-read" the webtoon Misaeng, which was once an important issue in the field of public discourse on "labor". Our hypothesis was that the dual actactial structure of Misaeng's hero Jang Geurae gave a dual structure to the entire text, which leads to the discovery of text meaning that was not mentioned in the existing discourse. This is based on the concept of 'meta-story character', which Hiroki Azuma talked in his postmodern literary theory. To verify this hypothesis we analyzed the text by applying the Parisian semiotics, more specifically J. Fontanille's theory. Jang Geurae is observed to be a actant of dual structure divided into 'character' of the enunciated level and 'player' of the enunciation level. Considering this characteristic of the hero, Misaeng can be interpreted as a metafiction that shows the 'shifting' between the subject of the enunciated level and the subject of the enunciation level. On the level of 'character' Jang's existence mode turns out to be "Deficiency (actualized)", but on the level of 'player' Jang 's existence mode turns out to be "Inanity(potentiallized)." His somatic responses also show a duality, which is represented by Fontanille's corps-actant model, where on the level of 'character' the somatic actant of Jang consists of 'Moi-chair(ego-flesh)' and 'Soi-idem(self-idem)', and on the level of 'player' it consists of 'Moi-chair(ego-flesh)' and 'Soi-ipse(self-ipse)'. The former mainly acts as a 'role' and takes charge of exteroceptive perception, while the latter mainly acts as 'attitude' and takes charge of interoceptive perception. Because of this dissociative nature of actant, Jang's two 'self' draw the re-adjustment of values without serious conflict between the collective norms and the individual identity. This is in sharp contrast with other characters who struggle with the conflict between the environment and "self". It becomes customary to adopt norms that are suspected to ineffective, but if you raise questions, the normative system can be updated. On one axis of Misaeng there are characters who have lost themselves in customs. On the other axis, there is Jang who can not help dismantling the existing ineffective norms and updating the normative system. Jang's existence mode seems to be one of many possible modes generated by this era where people share no longer solid community values, His actantial structure also communicates with readers of these days who put themselves more in subject of enunciation level than of enunciated level.

Depuis les $ann{\acute{e}}es$ 1990, sous l'influence de la $pens{\acute{e}}e$ postmoderne, des ${\oe}uvres$ $d{\acute{e}}constructivistes$ ont fait leur apparition dans le $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ $cor{\acute{e}}en$. Cependant, cette approche est plus remarquable dans le domaine du $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ pratique que dans celui de $l^{\prime}{\acute{e}}criture$ dramatique. Par exemple, ce mouvement a $commenc{\acute{e}}$ avec les metteurs en $sc{\grave{e}}ne$ OH Tae-suk et GUI Gook-seo au $d{\acute{e}}but$ des $ann{\acute{e}}es$ 1990. Leur ont $succ{\acute{e}}d{\acute{e}}$ ensuite les metteurs en $sc{\grave{e}}ne$ CHOI Yong-hoon, de la troupe de $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ Chak Eun Shin Hwa, et PARK Kun-hyung. De plus, actuellement, de jeunes metteurs en $sc{\grave{e}}ne$ travaillent avec $perspicacit{\acute{e}}$, tels que KO Sung-woong, KANG Lyang-won et YOUN Han-sol. A $l^{\prime}oppos{\acute{e}}$ de ce $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ pratique, $l^{\prime}{\acute{e}}criture$ dramatique des $pi{\grave{e}}ces$ de $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ demeure au niveau de $l^{\prime}{\acute{e}}criture$ $repr{\acute{e}}sentative$ et est encore sans grande valeur. Pour $r{\acute{e}}fl{\acute{e}}chir$ ${\grave{a}}$ ce $probl{\grave{e}}me$, nous $consid{\acute{e}}rerons$ les $pi{\grave{e}}ces$ de Michel Vinaver dont la dramaturgie oppose $l^{\prime}{\acute{e}}criture$ $d{\acute{e}}constructiviste$ au principe $repr{\acute{e}}sentatif$ et ${\grave{a}}$ $l^{\prime}{\acute{e}}criture$ traditionnelle en ${\acute{e}}chappant$ au principe de $causalit{\acute{e}}$. Avec sa $strat{\acute{e}}gie$ de montage $sp{\acute{e}}cifique$, il $proc{\grave{e}}de$ avec une ${\acute{e}}criture$ $fragment{\acute{e}}e$ tout en $ins{\acute{e}}rant$ des dialogues $h{\acute{e}}t{\acute{e}}rog{\grave{e}}nes$. Il trouve ainsi le silence des mots, un $pr{\acute{e}}sent$ sensible, la $mat{\acute{e}}rialit{\acute{e}}$ des mots et des images ostensives ${\grave{a}}$ travers des dialogues $juxtapos{\acute{e}}s$, une $simultan{\acute{e}}it{\acute{e}}$ et une $discontinuit{\acute{e}}$ du dialogue. En examinant ses $pi{\grave{e}}ces$ de $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$, nous explorons cette nouvelle ${\acute{e}}criture$ qui $r{\acute{e}}siste$ au $r{\acute{e}}gime$ dramatique de la $repr{\acute{e}}sentation$. Toutefois, nous n'encenserons pas seulement cette ${\acute{e}}criture$ postmoderne. Plus $pr{\acute{e}}cis{\acute{e}}ment$, nous $rel{\grave{e}}verons$ ses limites, dans les circonstances $pr{\acute{e}}sentes$, en $r{\acute{e}}fl{\acute{e}}chissant$ aux limites du $th{\acute{e}}{\hat{a}}tre$ postmoderne depuis le $d{\acute{e}}but$ des $ann{\acute{e}}es$ 2000. Ce faisant, nous souhaitons $d{\acute{e}}finir$ de nouvelles $possibilit{\acute{e}}s$ $esth{\acute{e}}tiques$.

Matrix, produced by Larry & Andy Wachowski, was relatively precisely dealt with the cyber world. After the movie was released, it had a mania for the movie and was adopted into a various forms of cultural products. It was remade not only into the parodies of the other movies and TV programs, but also the clothes and miscellaneous items of the movie were reincarnated as an unique cultural trend. The cause of the popularity is the fresh storyline as well as the sophisticated visual effects and good-looking actors. The agony of the protagonist was connected with the people outside the movie who are yearning for the ideal world. He was confused at the fact that his circumstances which were believed as the real world were not tortally true, complicated between the sensually phisical truth and the spiritual truth and had an will for the freedom that would ransack the truth and save the other people from the fictitious world. Consequently, the movie has got sympathies with many audiences suggesting the situation that has no a firm belief of the reality, the difference between the real and the cyber world is meaningless and the faked images of the high-technology are overturned This thesis tries to study the present that the real images are excessly duplicated and consumed, related to the Jean Baudrillard's theory, 'Hyperreel'. Replaced the real objects by a technical programming in the Matrix world, there happens the image-violence that the true nature is slaughterred by images. In the world where the reproducts are more actual than the reality and pretends to be real, only semiotics are consumed and produced. That is to say, the tortally programmed images has no references and aims, therefore should be produced in an 'impediment-strategy' like a faked crisis. That is the step of 'Simulation' that artificially reincarnates the real. Based upon the Baudrillard's theory, 'Simulacre', this study tries to research today's post-modern situation that the boundary of the real world and the faked copy is vague and vanishing, through the analysis of the cyber world of the movie 'Matrix'.

If we remember that modern world history has built systems of meaning through the concepts "difference," "different," and "other-ness" and has constructed new identity based on opposing hierarchy, music anthropology which tried to build "difference" between the west and the non-west was thoroughly west -centered, in the sense that it has perceived the heterogeneous symbolic systems among nations, as well as the barrier between the two cultures. On the other hand, world music, which has emerged as the most attractive field in culture industry and concert-art-market by crossing over global capitals, markets, and barriers, can be considered the most post-modernist and glocal. However, it is interesting to note that world music, which has been described as post-modern and glocal, has "difference" and "different" in its basis, just like the precepts for modern music anthropology (Meintjes 1990; Guilbault 1993; Taylor 1997; Frith 2000; Feld 1988). Furthermore, one can understand that the "different" and "difference," generally termed as being "non-western," are fundamentally based on ethnic or national imagination. In this sense it is interesting and important to examine such ethnic imagination in the "non-western ethnic musics" in music anthropology and in world music. Notwithstanding the attention paid and research made by music anthropologists, they have failed to elevate the "non-western ethnic musics" to become universally communicative, and these ethnic musics were reborn as "global" and "world music," through the process of "acculturation," "derivation," and "hybridization," with the west as major site for production and consumption. Meanwhile, the audience for world music, which did not exist before the birth of world music as a term, was now born as world music emerged. They are global populace who consume the musical "difference" and "imagined ethnicity," who through their consumption are constructing new social meanings including ethnicity, race, nation, and class identity. This study, by examining current discourse, performance, and process for the world music through media and field studies and scholarly debates, attempts to understand the production and consumption of "imagined ethnicity." This will also shed light on how "ethnicity" is created and consumed, and how this is involved in the process of world music.
