Dansaekhwa
The Dansaekhwa art style is characterized by a minimalistic approach to painting, often using a single color on a plain background. The focus is on the brushstrokes and the texture of the paint, rather than on the subject matter. This style is often associated with the Korean tradition of Zen Buddhism, which emphasizes simplicity and mindfulness.

Overview and Quickfacts
Dansaekhwa is a Korean art movement characterized by monochrome painting and abstract, minimalistic compositions. The name “Dansaekhwa” literally means “monochrome painting” in Korean. The movement emerged in the 1970s as a reaction to the Western-influenced abstract expressionism that was dominant in Korea at the time. Dansaekhwa artists instead sought to create a uniquely Korean form of abstract art. Dansaekhwa artists typically use a single color in their paintings, often white or black. They apply paint to the canvas in a repetitive, rhythmic manner, often using their hands or rags instead of brushes. This results in a textured, meditative quality to the paintings. The compositions are often geometric and minimalistic, with a focus on the relationship between positive and negative space. Dansaekhwa has been influenced by traditional Korean aesthetics, as well as Western movements such as minimalism and monochrome painting. The movement has been championed by a number of Korean critics and curators, and has gained international recognition in recent years.
