The first comprehensive survey to explore the rich and complex history of contemporary Korean artStarting with the armistice that divided the Korean Peninsula in 1953, this one-of-a-kind book spotlights the artistic movements and collectives that have flourished and evolved throughout Korean culture over the past seven decades - from the 1950s avant-garde through to the feminist scene in the 1970s, the birth of the Gwangju Biennale in the 1990s, the lesser known North Korean art scene, and all the artists who have emerged to secure a place in the international art world.

The definitive book on Korean abstract art and its aesthetic influence and cultural legacy Most commonly referred to as Dansaekhwa ('monochrome painting'), this major abstract art movement in postwar South Korea in fact pushed the boundaries of painting – and color – outside the canvas into fields that included drawing, craft, sculpture, installation, and conceptual and experimental art.Dansaekhwa: Korean Abstract Art and its Cultural Impact celebrates the movement’s aesthetic legacy. Richly illustrated and comprehensive in scope, this exciting book surveys Dansaekhwa’s canon-defining artists – both established and pioneering figures – detailing their work within the wider cultural climate of postwar South Korea and the international art world at large. Author Dr. Yeon Shim Chung presents critical examinations of significant Dansaekhwa artists, including Park Seo-Bo, Lee Ufan, Ha Chong-Hyun, Kim Tschang-Yeul, and Yun Hyong-keun, and examines how the movement crystallized through the influence of art critics both within and outside of Korea. A final chapter provocatively asks, in the tradition of Linda Nochlin, 'Why have there been no great women Dansaekhwa artists?', revealing that artists such as Chin Ohc Sun, Lee Chungji, and Yoon Miran, as well as later generation artists including Seundja Rhee and Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, were highly influential in the mostly male-dominated movement. Featuring more than 250 beautifully reproduced images of artworks and archival materials, Dansaekhwa is a timely, essential guide to understanding Korean abstract art and its international impact.

Tracing the correspondence and careers of four artists blazing a path for Korean modern art across the globePublished with Tina Kim Gallery.From the birth of Korean Informal to the emergence of Dansaekhwa, this book is the first comprehensive survey of modern Korean abstraction through the lives of four protagonists: Kim Tschang-Yeul (1929-2021), Kim Whanki (1913-74), Lee Ufan (born 1936) and Park Seo-Bo (1931-2023). These four artists strove for "international contemporaneity" in four different cities: Seoul, Tokyo, Paris and New York. This landmark volume foregrounds the personal correspondences between these pioneering artists as critical documents charting the development of modern Korean art. Newly translated, previously unpublished letters are reproduced here alongside groundbreaking artworks, offering an unprecedented window into the artistic, philosophical and logistical challenges of forging a distinctly Korean modernism.

Shin Sung Hy s oeuvre stands at the crossroads of Korea and France, tradition and revolution, surface and body. Published to coincide with his Paris museum solo exhibition, this volume traces the artist s relentless effort to liberate painting from the flatness of the canvas. From early color and surface explorations to the structural interventions of his final Nouage works, Shin systematically challenged the limitations of the painted plane. Situating his practice within Korean postwar abstraction and global trajectories of expanded painting, Shin Sung Hy s Paintings maps the evolution of an artist whose innovations redefined the relationship between pigment, material, and space. Across the decades Shin used textured jute and vibrantly knotted canvases to push color into motion, surface into structure, and gesture into space. This first monograph offers a long-overdue recognition of an artist whose legacy has reshaped the global history of abstraction.
