During this period Korea experienced the fall of its 500-year-long dynasty, annexation to Japan, the Korean war, division into two Koreas, and internationalization/globalization.  The class will explore how visual art, including paintings, photographs, posters, ceramics, and film, reflected and expressed the political, socio-economic, and cultural changes and concerns of each period, in both South and North Korea.
