“Modern Korean Artists,” a compilation of articles about contemporary artists from the quarterly magazine Koreana (2000-2008), offers an opportunity for readers to better understand and appreciate Korea’s modern arts, related to a variety of genres, ranging from the fine arts to Korean film. Although the entire spectrum of Korea’s modern arts and artists cannot be fully dealt with in a single publication such as this, it does include a close-up look of several key figures who have contributed to advancement of the modern arts scene in Korea.

This book is a captivating visual addition to the material available on this period. More than 70 prints, taken between 1887 and 1938, give glimpses of the dramatic social changes in progress—missionary doctors, Korean doctors, switchboard operators, Christian weddings, new buildings, schools, teachers, football and tennis teams, crowded roofs, hairdressers, Benedictine industrial schools, Bible translation sessions and much more constitute the subject of images that absorb the reader with their abundance of character and richness of detail. The book begins with four essays on various aspects of missionary involvement in Korea and an interview with a leading academic in the field -as such, it is not only a deeply engaging collection of rare photographs but a solid reference book on the subject of early missionary activity in Korea. Anyone remotely interested in this crucial period of Korean history should consider this book indispensable.
