AB - This study focuses on the paintings that Kim Yong-chul has produced in Korea over the past 50 years from the 1970s to the present. The purpose of this paper is to interpret the creative methodology that he developed while reacting to the contemporary conditions of the Korean art world and the paradigm shifts of art. First, I discuss the situation in the art world of Korea around the 1970s, when abstract painting/Dansaekhwa became mainstream, and Kim’s early media-critical works from the time his career started as a young artist. Next, I analyze the situation in the 1980s and 1990s, when the art world paradigm shifted to Minjung art and postmodernism and the content Kim achieved in his paintings by composing speech bubbles, messages, and motifs from traditional-regional culture on the canvas. This is to reveal the characteristics of Kim’s paintings that he created in a situation where Korean art since the mid-20th century has formed opposing axes of Dansaekhwa and Minjung art, abstract painting and figurative painting, conceptual/intellectual art and craftsmanship/aestheticism. In conclusion, I argue that Kim used the condition of the Korean art world as a critical origin of his creation and responded to the flows of contemporary society and art.
