Korean Art from the 19th Century to the Present by Charlotte Horlyck

Charlotte Horlyck explores oil and ink paintings to video art, multi-media installations, ready-mades and performance, and the questions that arise about the role of art and the artist's position within society.
'The book provides a fascinating insight into the greatest century of political, social and cultural change in the history of Korea, the focus of artistic as well as military confrontation between East and West' - Keith Pratt, Emeritus Professor, Durham University; 'This book covers over 100 years of Korean modern art in one flow by explaining each period's art scenes with well-documented information. It suggests the inseparable relationship between art and politics under the dynamically changing social context in and out of Korea.' - Jungsil Jenny Lee, University of Kansas
Charlotte Horlyck is Lecturer in Korean Art History at SOAS, University of London, where she teaches on Korean art from pre-modern to contemporary times. She has published widely on Korean material culture.
