  • This thesis examines contemporary Chinese painting after the Cultural Revolution(1966~76), focusing upon so-called "Chinese Pop art", which I termed as "Socialist Pop art". I considered the art of this period within the broader context of social changes especially after the Tienanmen incident of 1989. After the Cultural Revolution during which idolization of Chairman Mao was at its peak, one of the major changes in communist China was that an anti-Mao wave was generated in almost every social class. For example, novels that revealed the hardships during the Cultural Revolution were published. Posters that openly criticized the Maoism were also produced and displayed on the walls, and demand for democracy spurred widespread activist movements among young generations. These broad social changes were also reflected in art. A variety of art movements were introduced from the West to China, and after a period of experimentation with the new imported styles, artists began to apply the new artistic idiom to their works in order to visualize their own social and political realities they lived in. It was a shift from earlier Socialist Realism to a new expression either directly or indirectly, "Socialist Pop", an amalgam of Socialist Realism and Pop art tradition. After the 1989 crackdown of Tienanmen Square protest, when communist government quelled with brutal measures the students, workers, and ordinary people who rose for democracy, greater urge to protest the Deng Xiaoping regime emerged. This time coincided with the gradual emergence of art using Pop art vocabulary to satirize the social reality, the Socialist Pop art, along with many other art forms all with avant-garde spirit. One of the most frequent subjects of Chinese Pop art was visual images of Chairman Mao and his Cultural Revolution, and new China that was saturated with capitalism, which tainted the Chinese way of life with a Western way of consumerism and commercialism. The reason for the popularity of Mao's image was spurred by the "Mao Craze" in the early 1990's. People suddenly began to fall in a kind of nostalgia for the past, and once again, Mao Zedong was idolized as an entity who can heal the problems of modern China who had been marching towards their ultimate destination, the economic development. But this time Chairman Mao was no more an idol but just a popular, commercial product. He is no more an object of worship of almost religious nature but he has become an iconography symbolizing the complex nature of present Chinese society. During this process of depicting the social reality, Chinese artists are making the authority and sanctity of Maoism ineffective. Dealing with this new trend of contemporary Chinese art in view of "Socialist Pop art" two manners of re-creating Pop art can be illustrated: one that incorporates the propaganda posters of the Cultural Revolution; the other borrows from Chinese traditional popular imagery or mass media, such as photos taken during Mao era. What is worth mentioning is that these posters and photos of the Cultural Revolution can be identified as 'popular' media, as they were directed to educate the popular mass, thus combination of this ingenuous pop media with Western Pop art can be fully justified as a genre unique to China. Through this genre, we can discover a new chapter of the Chinese contemporary painting and its society, as their Pop art can be considered as self-portraits true to their present appearances.

  • Land art has always ben considered as a similar but distinctly separate field from landscape architecture. Landscape architechs look to land art for inspiration and new concepts, but has always hesitated to define their field as an "art." But as more and more design projects for social spaces are being commissioned to artists, especially land artists, the distinction between the two fields are starting to blur. "Art or Social service\ulcorner" has been a question that has been asked in the field of landscape architecture throughout the 20 th century. By reviewing the concepts behind various land art projects, this paper seeks to undermine several misconceptions that has prevented landscape architects from wholeheartedly embracing land art as a expansion of their own field. Land art, as a new form of sculpture, sought to create art forms that were not looked at but experienced from the inside. Land art challenges the principle of the picturesque and the pictorialized view of nature. Land art was influenced by a new interest in prehistoric art, and sought to reestablish communication between the artist and the public. Also, land artists acknowledge the social responsibilities of art and presents the concept of art as a community activity. As can be seen by the concepts behind the works of land artists, the dichtomy of the artistic and social aspects of landscape architecture can be reconciled, and land art can serve as a model for a expanded field of landscape architecture.dscape architecture.

  • Since the 1980s the development of American art furniture was embodied its concept by second-generation furniture artists affected and educated from the first generation that has implanted art furniture fundamental values. Besides, embracing inevitably needs of the new era going with the social change rather than dwell on the nature of mere handicraft era, it has evolved with economic revival in the United States, the attention and increased consumption of the public, and ongoing government-sponsored. And more recently, the American contemporary Art Furniture faces another change in the non-boundary phenomena between art and design. American art furniture since the 1980s are summarized as three major trends: Art furniture embellished with traditional hand-craft, Art furniture featured the individualistic avant-guard characteristic, Art furniture eroded the distinction between art and design. By analyzing focusing on the furniture artists and their works in contemporary art furniture deployment aspects since the 1980s, the purpose of this study can be utilized as a method to measure the forward direction, internationally competitive, creativity, and artistic value of the domestic art furniture.

  • 본 논문을 '근대적 예술 개념으로서의 서예'를 정의해 보고자하는 글이다. 근대성의 지표로서의 '자율성'에 근거하여 '순수예술로서의 서예성'과 배치되는 요소들을 제거해 봄으로써 현재 우리가 처해있는 시대의 서예는 어떠해야 하는지를 반추해보자는 의미이다. 근대예술 개념으로서의 서예를 '글자를 쓰는 예술'로 정의하고, 이를 성격과 형식, 내용적 측면으로 분류하여 논의하였다. 먼저 성격적 측면에서 서예는 마땅히 공간예술이어야 하지만, 시간의 추이와 함께 창작되고 감상되는 시간예술적 속성도 또한 지닌다. 따라서 공간예술 가운데 2차원적 공간예술인 회화와 가장 유사하며, 시간예술 가운데 리듬성(운동성)과 추이성을 내재한 음악과 유사하여 시공간예술로서의 무용과 유사함을 설명하였다. 따라서 서예는 '회화와 같이 눈에 보이는 글자를 음악과 같이 시간의 추이에 따라 (평면)공간에 써가는 사이에 살아있는 작가의 생명감이 표현되는' 무용과 같은 '시공간 예술'이라 하였다. 형식적 측면에서는 서예를 전각 서각 문자디자인과의 비교를 통해 동이점을 도출함으로써 '순수예술'로서의 서예 개념을 도출하였다. 서예의 내용적 측면은 문학과의 비교를 통해서 동이점을 논설하였다. 근대예술 개념으로서의 서예, 즉 서예의 자율성 문제는 순수예술이냐 응용예술(실용예술)이냐의 문제와 어울려 서예의 소재인 문자의 가독성(可讀性)과 문의(文意) 문제를 들었다. 문자의 가독성과 문의는 서예를 존재케 하는 요소임과 동시에 서예의 자율성을 제약하는 요소로 작용하는 일종의 파라독스다. 즉 문자의 가독성과 문의의 수용 여부는 서예를 응용예술 혹은 문학예술의 부용으로서의 서예인가, 순수조형예술인가의 가름이 되기 때문이다. 이와 연관하여 서예의 창작과 감상 부분에서는 2차원적 공간예술인 회화와 시간적 예술인 음악과 대비시킴으로서 문의로부터 자유로운 '순수조형예술로서의 서예'의 가능성을 제시하였다.

  • Louisiana Museum of Modern Art near Copenhagen is the most visited art museum in Denmark. It was originally founded by the director of the time, Knud W. Jensen and designed by two Danish architects, Vilhelm Wohlert and J${\o}$rgen Bo. The first part of the museum was built and opened to the public in 1958. The first part consisted of just a few exhibition spaces and glass corridors. But museum has been expanded step by step into a large park-like museum throughout 40 years of time. Louisiana museum has a unique environment in which art, architecture and nature are inter-related together. There was a very clear background for this museum atmosphere that was created by Knud W. Jensen from the very beginning. He wanted to make 'a sculptural park' or 'a low pavilion in the park'. The concept of 'park' was the key element. The architects, especially Vilhelm Wohlert who studied at the western area of the United States and influenced by the bay area architecture as well as the oriental wooden structure, interacted with the director's idea fully and made an invisible architecture in which 'Experience of Space' is the most important aspect. This thesis aims to analyze several crucial spaces of the museum and to find a hidden design characteristics. Chapter 2&3 explains general backgrounds and main design philosophy. Chapter 4 studies each parts' spatial experience and design methods with 3-dimensional diagrams. Chapter 5 tries to make an overall design characteristics that underlines the whole museum environment. The significance of Louisiana museum is not only in the fact that it is the most visited, but also in the fact that the role of architecture is to make a better environment where human and art are harmonized together within nature. The utopian idea of the founder started in doubt almost 50 years ago has been already successful in this small but vibrant park.

  • 아르누보(Art Nouveau)는 자연을 모티브로 한 양식으로 인간의 삶의 질을 높이려는 현대디자인의 이념과 상통하여 식물을 주로 모방한 곡선을 사용하면서, 자연친화적인 특징에 그리스 여신의 이미지를 가미하여 헤어바이나이트를 디자인하여 제시하였다. 이 논문의 연구범위는 다양한 곡선을 사용한 아르누보 양식 중에서 르네 랄리크(Ren$\acute{e}$ Lalique)와 에밀 갈레(Emile Galle)의 아르누보 양식에 기초하여 꽃과 유기적으로 연결되어 있는 아르누보 양식을 응용하였다. '색들의 향연'으로 에오스 Eos(새벽의 여신)와 헤스티아 Hestia(불의 여신)를, '선들의 향연'으로 아르테미스 Artemis(달의 여신)과 데메테르 Demeter(땅의 여신)로서 총 4개의 작품을 제작하였다.
