Korean Art from 1953: Collision, Innovation, Interaction

Korean Art from 1953: Collision, Innovation, Interaction is the first book to survey the diverse developments of Korean art from 1953 to the present. Starting from the signing of the Korean armistice agreement, a tumultuous political climate beset the country, forever changing the pursuit of art for generations to come.

This book will discuss the art movements and collectives that flourished and evolved through the past seven decades, covering the most important chapters in Korean contemporary art, from the avant-garde movements of the 1950s through the boom of the 1990s with the birth of the Gwangju Biennial, as well as the challenging relationship with the North Korean art scene.
