Rain or shine, however, the preparations for AKSE activities continue. On 21 August, 2008 the Fifth Korean Studies Convention for Graduate Students in Europe will begin, this year to be held in Leiden. Originally this was not an AKSE activity, the graduate students themselves taking charge of the entire organisation together with local teachers. This will not radically change, but AKSE will every year at the end of July include a request for funding of the convention of the following year to the Korea Foundation in its request for other activities and when necessary encourage graduate students to organise a convention. This will facilitate the work of the graduate students who are organising next year’s conference and promote continuity. Preparations are also under way for the 2009 AKSE Biennial Conference in Leiden.

  • Existence Beyond Condition This Text Is Excerpted from a Forthcoming
    Existence Beyond Condition This text is excerpted from a forthcoming anthology of newly translated writings by Kishio Suga, edited by Andrew Maerkle and published by Skira Editore and Blum & Poe. Introduction by Andrew Maerkle In 1970 Bijutsu Techō dedicated the featured content of its February issue to the voices of emerging artists. Subjects included Susumu Koshimizu, Lee Ufan, Katsuhiko Narita, Nobuo Sekine, Katsuro Yoshida, and Suga, who all appeared together in a roundtable discussion. 1 The year prior, in 1969, these artists had made their mark at major exhibitions, such as the 9th Contemporary Art Exhibition of Japan at the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum and the annual Trends in Contemporary Art exhibition at the National Museum of Modern Art, Kyoto. Not participating in either, Suga was the lone exception, although his solo exhibition in October 1969 at Tamura Gallery, where he presented the work Parallel Strata, caught the eye of influential critics such as Toshiaki Minemura. Indeed, Suga was on the cusp of his breakthrough. Later in 1970, he would be included in Trends in Contemporary Art in Kyoto, as well as another important annual survey, the Artists Today exhibition organized by the Yokohama Civic Art Gallery, and August 1970: Aspects of New Japanese Art at the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo. Additionally, he won the grand prize at the 5th Japan Art Festival exhibition, which traveled to the Guggenheim Museum in New York under the title Contemporary Japanese Art. It was a sign of things to come, then, that Suga was chosen to contribute one of two long essays that led the roundtable, the other being Lee Ufan’s “In Search of Encounter.”2 Full of dense rhetoric, “Existence beyond Condition” is one of Suga’s most challenging texts to unpack.

Suga, a key figure in Japanese contemporary art, is the only member of Mono-ha to have consistently developed the group’s research and practices through the present day, pushing the boundaries of its original concepts and themes. Taking temporary arrangements and combinations of natural and industrial materials as his starting point, Suga investigates their physical presence, existence and relationship with the environment by building site-specific installations.

  • The Storied Space of Korean Dansaekhwa: the 1992 and 2012 Exhibitions
    M+ Matters | Postwar Abstraction in Japan, South Korea and Taiwan [28 June 2014] www.mplusmatters.hk The Storied Space of Korean Dansaekhwa: The 1992 and 2012 Exhibitions Yeon Shim Chung This paper looks at the way two exhibitions of Dansaekhwa—at the Tate gallery, Liverpool, in 1992 and the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Seoul in 2012— created a storied space and narrative of “non-artificial nature” and modernist Korean aesthetics.i Dansaekhwa is known as postwar Korean abstract painting, which is also referred to as monochrome painting, Dansaekjo. Although numerous terms have been used to describe Korean abstract paintings, the recent retrospective exhibition curated by Yoon Jin Sup in 2012 in Korea clarified the current terms that I deploy in this paper. Dansaekhwa, widespread in the 1970s, marked a concrete contribution to the history of modern and contemporary Korean art, with several landmark exhibitions in Korea garnering critical attention. We shall look at two exhibitions: one outside Korea and the other in Korea, marking a twenty-year interval. Taken together, I want to create embedded stories pertaining to Dansaekhwa, which is said to be non-objective art without any narrative or subject matter. My aim will be to approach this work from a contextual vantage point while replying to the critical writing of Lee Yil (1932-1997), Dansaekhwa’s main protagonist critic. It is my hope to reconsider Dansaekhwa as a site or a storied “pictorial and social” space, thus fortifying its salient critical stories and formal innovations. 1. Dansaekhwa: Lee Yil’s “Hwanwon” and “Hwaksan” Dansaekhwa, postwar abstract art in Korea, was loosely formed in the 1970s and continues to exist in the work of artists of the younger generation.

  • Lee Ufan Biography
    Lee Ufan Painter, sculptor, writer and philosopher Lee Ufan came to prominence in the late 1960s as one of the major theoretical and practical proponents of the avant-garde Mono-ha (Object School) group. The Mono-ha school of thought was Japan’s first contemporary art movement to gain international recognition. It rejected Western notions of representation, focusing on the relationships of materials and perceptions rather than on expression or intervention.The artists of Mono-ha present works made of raw physical materials that have barely been manipulated. In 1991 Lee Ufan began his series of Correspondance paintings, which consist of just one or two grey-blue brushstrokes, made of a mixture of oil and crushed stone pigment, applied onto a large white surface. His sculptural series Relatum is equally minimal: each work is comprised of one or more light-colored round stones and dark, rectangular iron plates. The dialectical relationship between brushstroke and canvas is mimicked in the relationship between stone and iron plate. In Ufan’s installations space is at the same time untouched and engaged, at the confines between doing and non-doing.The relationship between painted / unpainted and occupied / empty space lies at the heart of Lee Ufan’s practice. Lee Ufan was born on June 24th, 1936, in Kyongnam, South Korea. He studied calligraphy, poetry and painting at the College of Kyongnam and the University of Seoul. Lee has been the subject of major shows at Couvent de la Tourette, Eveux, France (2017), Centre de Création Contemporaine

  • KIM TSCHANG-YEUL (1929–2021)' January 06, 2021
    'KIM TSCHANG-YEUL (1929–2021)' January 06, 2021 Kim Tshcang-Yeul Korean artist Kim Tschang-Yeul, who was widely known for his “water drop” paintings, which he characterized as a way of erasing his ego, died January 5 at the age of ninety-one. Along with Nam June Paik and Lee Ufan, Kim was one of Korea’s most influential artists of the past century. Born in 1929 in Maengsan, in what would come to be North Korea, Kim in 1945 moved south, where he studied under Lee Kwae-dae, eventually enrolling in the art program at Seoul National University. Following the interruption of the Korean War (1950–53), Kim, with Park Seo-Bo, Suh Se-Ok, Ha Chong-Hyun, and Chung Chang-Sup, led Korea’s burgeoning Art Informel movement, whose concerns with nonrepresentational abstract art paralleled those of their counterparts in Europe and America. Kim’s work and that of his compatriots would prove to have an enormous impact on the artists of the subsequent Dansaekhwa movement. Kim’s work of this time earned him spots in both the Paris Biennale of 1961 and the Bienal de São Paulo of 1965. That same year, Kim received a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation enabling him to move to New York, where he studied at the Art Students’ League between 1966 and 1968 and became fascinated with Pop art. In 1969, he moved to Paris, where he would spend the next five decades focusing on his iconic water-drop works, moving from vibrant multihued canvases to muted works of refined hyperrealism.

  • Ways to Investigate an Unknown Thing: Kishio Suga

MUNRO In the spring of 1971, the prolific writer and Provoke magazine pho- WAYS TO INVESTIGATE tographer Takuma Nakahira took part in the Seventh Paris Biennale with his weeklong installation project Circulation, a cacophony of AN UNKNOWN THING: cut and cropped images that also featured Korean artist Lee Ufan and Japanese installation artist Ko¯ji Enokura—both affiliated with KISHIO SUGA AND THE the Japanese movement Mono-ha (School of Things) taking part ENDURING NATURE in the same biennale, looking the worse for wear. Shot during the day, processed at night, and hung ready for the next morning, the OF MONO-HA sheer weight and volume of images began to spill uncontrollably across the venue floor. Days before the installation was due to finish, Nakahira fell out with the biennial organizers. In a fit of desperation BY STUART MUNRO and no doubt protest, he went on to destroy most of the work. Lee later attested that for Nakahira, this moment in Paris was probably a turning point that hinted at bigger things to come.1 Stuart Munro introduces the work While that trial by fire proved to be crucial for Nakahira both of Kishio Suga, a Japanese sculp- personally and professionally, it also proved to be a milestone for Mono-ha: the biennial marked the first major introduction of this tor and installation artist and a group to Europe. The group was never formalized, and those associ- ated with it shied away from such formalities. The first real point of founding member of Mono-ha, contact between artists was the round table discussion titled “Voices who has major exhibitions hap- of Emerging Artists: Mono Opens a New World,” as published in the February 1970 issue of Japanese art periodical Bijutsu Techo.
