Janis’ Art Table: Cho Yong Ik


A public discussion exploring Cho Yong Ik’s works from the 1970s and 1980s, with a particular focus on his iconic Wave Series. Moderated by Director Janis Park at Gallery Chang, Seoul, the conversation examined the aesthetic ideas behind Cho’s distinctive visual language, including repetition, gesture, materiality, and the relationship between control and spontaneity.

The session placed Cho’s practice within the broader context of Korean modern and contemporary art, inviting a closer reading of how his works developed their own language beyond conventional definitions of Dansaekhwa.
