Minhwa Workshop at the First Campus Center of the Princeton University, NJ, US

On March 8th,  I conducted a Minhwa Workshop at the First Campus Center of the Princeton University for around 50 students and a group of professors. The event was held as a part of KFAA (Korean Fine Arts Association)’s mission of which I’m a part as the chairman of the international committee. Though it was one week prior to their mid-term week, many students participated and enjoyed Minhwa painting. Tiger is the mascot animal of the univ. In Minhwa, tiger drives away evil spirit and magpie brings a good news. I hope good results come along to everyone!

Talk about Korean culture

As a part of a mission from KACAF (Korean-American Cultural Arts Foundation) USA, I had a chance to give a talk about Korean culture and art in Kyrgyzstan last week. Since "Korean Wave" is sweeping over here, Central Asia as well, everyone was interested in learning and talking about K-Pop, K-Dramas, and Korean costumes.

한미문화예술재단USA 일원으로 중앙아시아에서 우리의 문화 알리는 수업이 있었습니다. 한류에 힘입어 드라마, 노래, 의상 등등 관심과 질문사항이 많았던 즐거운 워크숍이였어요 🌺

I am pleased to announce that there is going to be a public Minhwa workshop, followed by my exhibition at the Star Art Space Art Residency in Kyrgyzstan.

The imageries such as peony, and tiger are well-known subject matters of Korean folk painting. It's a pleasure to know that people in Central Asia also find them interesting.
