| Abstract |
| This paper has ventured to propose, in series, that contemporary design tendency to convergence (intercommunication between figures and abstraction, shape and frame, letters and images, various genres) is based on a kind of universal human creation competence rather than a temporary or a technological one. The Korean comtemporary design is originated and generated of some historical accumulation which has been made by the peoples` lifework and aesthetic from the Koryu age.
Historical documents and texts analysis are used to illustrate the above points. This historical study can be investigated from figurative and artistic expressions in accessary illustration and can explain its some features in style. Analyse methode is semiotical segmentation in the field of visual text, which permit to describe main characteristics in Koryu`s illustrations. Firstly, illustration of the Koryu age reveals its modern character in a transformation from realism to abstraction which supports itself by growing to abstraction of the figures. Secondly, illustration of the age reveals its dialectical aspect between lines and plans stressing a integration of lines to plans.
These two main characters of Koryu`s illustration show that our contemporary aesthetic and design in Digital age is not in its unique industrial and modern historical course, but also in our Korean universal tradition which is actually performant. |
