Beyond Line: The Art of Korean Writing (June 16 – September 29, 2019, Resnick Pavilion)
Beyond Line will feature writing and calligraphy in Korea in both hanja and hanguel. We’ll be able to view the development of the Korean writing system along with examining works by “kings and queens, officials and scholars, painters and monks, and even slaves.” Korea’s process from woodblock printing and moveable metal type will also be featured in this exhibit. For anyone interested in the history of the Korean language, writing and calligraphy must view this limited time exhibit.
