Download or read book Korean Lacquer Art written by Patricia Frick and published by Hirmer Verlag GmbH. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A traditional art form with a history spanning several thousand years, Korean lacquer art is prized for its inimitable artistic and technical perfection. Drawing on a display at the Museum of Lacquer Art in Münster, this beautifully illustrated book introduces readers to outstanding--and often extremely rare--examples of lacquer art, which involves adorning objects with tree sap and intricately inlaying them with shell, gold leaf, or pearl. Among the objects photographed for this book are works from the Goryeo and Joseon dynasties, particularly valued periods in the history of lacquer art known for vivid pieces inlaid with mother-of-pearl. Each object in Korean Lacquer Art is described in considerable detail and extensively illustrated. Together with essays by renowned experts on the techniques used to create them, they present a picture of the multifaceted development of Korean lacquer art from its beginnings through the early twentieth century.

  • ISBN : 9780878467884
  • Pages : 188 pages

Download or read book Arts of Korea written by Jane Portal and published by MFA Highlights. This book was released on 2012 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, has one of the finest collections of Korean art outside East Asia, with particularly superb holdings of ceramics, including celadon masterworks from the eleventh to fourteenth centuries, and Buddhist paintings and sculptures. It is also rich in metalwork, lacquer, and ink painting. While some of the hundred objects presented here were created for royals and aristocrats, many others were originally intended for everyday use and tell a story not only about the artisans who made these boxes, mirrors, jars, tiles, and trays but also about the people who used them. The works represented in 'Arts of Korea' reach in time from a Bronze Age dagger to contemporary ceramics and prints, highlighting the creative dialogue of artists with Korea's unique traditions, as well as with those of China and Japan, over more than two millennia. Enhanced with illuminating essays about the objects' cultural history, this book offers an ideal introduction to the splendors and subtleties of Korean art.
