In his recent works, Ko Younghoon (b. 1952) has embarked on a new artistic direction by portraying an imaginary moon jar against a plain white background with subtle shadows. This minimalistic approach allows him to draw the viewer's attention to the object being portrayed and explore the object's ultimate beauty. The object is imagined and represents the idealized form in the mind of the artist, creating an existance of both realistic and illusionary. Ko notes that he is now "creating his own pottery by brush," as potters create 3-dementional potteries by hands.
Ko Younghoon holds a B.F.A and M.F.A from Hong-Ik University. He has exhibited his works internationally, including at the 42nd Venice Biennale in 1986. His paintings can be found in various public collections globally, such as the National Museum of Contemporary Art, Korea, the Ho-Am Art Museum in Seoul (Leeum Samsung Museum of Art), and the Musée de Lunéville in France.
