Brief Introduction Nature and spirit at the tip of the brush: the journey of Korean painting with Kyeong Hwa Choi DATES 15 October TIME 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM TARGET AUDIENCE Ages 16+ [indicative age] PARTICIPANTS Min. 6 PRICE €25 Traditional Korean painting expresses, with a sensitive and profound gaze, the intrinsic connection between nature and human life, whether through majestic landscapes, the Four Noble Plants, or vivid scenes of daily life. The use of blank space (??? ?) and the elegant simplicity of lines define the Korean aesthetic consciousness, whose legacy extends to contemporary art. In this lecture, we will analyze the main pictorial genres and the philosophical thought that underlies them. Kyeong Hwa Choi, resident in Portugal since 2012, holds a Master's degree in Art History and is a writer, editor, translator, Bojagui textile artist, and practitioner of Seoye since 1984.
