The Scholar's Vision, The Photographer's Eye: Korean Ceramics (1392-1910)

Koo Bohnchang (1953)

Synopsis

"The Scholar’s Vision, The Photographer’s Eye" centers on a dialogue between Chung Yangmo, scholar and former Korean National Museum director, and contemporary artist Koo Bohnchang regarding Joseon-dynasty white and blue-and-white porcelain. The book features Koo's portraits of these vessels accompanied by Chung's insights, delivering a unique perspective on Korean ceramics. It addresses the increasing global interest in Korean culture while filling a gap in English literature on traditional Korean art. By merging art-historical knowledge with aesthetic interpretation, the book explores the contemporary significance of this porcelain tradition that thrived for over five centuries.
