Description
Korean Art from 1953: Collision, Innovation and Interaction by Yeon Shim Chung, Sunjung Kim, Kimberly Chung, Keith B. Wagner is a comprehensive survey of contemporary Korean art. Spanning seven decades, this book explores the artistic movements and collectives that have shaped Korean culture since the armistice in 1953. From the avant-garde of the 1950s to the feminist scene of the 1970s, and from the Gwangju Biennale of the 1990s to the lesser-known North Korean art scene, this book provides a detailed look at the diverse range of artists who have secured a place in the international art world. With its unique perspective on Korean art history, this publication offers a valuable insight into the country's rich cultural heritage.
