[Herald Gallery] Yongang Imsulchob
S2A Gallery, located in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, is hosting its New Year special exhibition, "Stroke and Ink: Three Maestros," until March 22. This exhibition explores the connection between Korean tradition and contemporary aesthetics, focusing on the artistic worlds of three great masters: Gyeomjae Jeong Seon (1676–1759), Chusa Kim Jeong-hui (1786–1856) and Yun Hyong-keun (1928–2007).
Notably, "Yongang Imsulchob" by Jeong Seon, a leading Joseon-era painter who pioneered true-view landscape paintings beyond the conventional framework of conceptual landscape art, will be on public display for the first time in ten years. This masterpiece represents the essence of true-view landscape painting.
The exhibition has been further enriched by the participation of Yoo Hong Jun, chair professor at Myongji University. Special lectures on Jeong Seon and Kim Jeong-hui are also scheduled as accompanying events.
