본문내용

ea of indigenization has sprouted up by Korean Christian artists.
In the early period of Christian history in Korea missionaries were the main providers of insights for indigenization. But later, artists themselves expressed their own understanding of Christian arts through their works. It is debatable what kind of arts could be categorized as indigenized Christian arts. Therefore, it is necessary to set forth a certain rules with which we can use differentiating Christian arts from indigenized Christian arts. Indigenization in arts can be understood as adoptation and modification of styles and contents of traditional arts in tune with the characteristics of traditional or unique artistic sense of the country. Along with this basic understanding, the author suggested a few other principles of indigenization such as the spirituality and historical consciousness of artists, and excellence of their arts.
In order to take a glance over the historical development of Korean Christian arts, it would be effective to demarcate time-periods, centering around historical events such as nationwide persecutions of Catholics, freedom of foreign religion, colonization, Korea War, the establishment of the Association of Korean Christian Artists, and emergence of Minjung arts. The following is the time-periods that this article sets to view the whole range of Christian art history in Korea.
(1) Prior to 1880 the Introduction of Christian Arts
(2) 1880s -- 1910 the Beginning of Korean Christian Arts
(3) 1910 -- 1945 the Initial Phase of Popularization of Christian Arts
(4) 1945 -- 1965 the Individual Activities by Artists
(5) After 1965 the Systematic Development of Christian Arts : the
establishment of the Association of Korean Christian Artists
(6) 1980s Christian Arts in reality -- Challenge of Minjung Arts
(7) 1990s Christian Arts in the Post-modern Period
The categories above mentioned do not deal with various types of arts, but they show a few important characteristics in relation to the theme of indigenization. Before 1980s a typical form of indigenized Christian arts was to draw Korean figures and Korean traditional costumes instead of western people and their clothes. Christian traditional symbols were sometimes replaced by Korean symbols and artifacts, but contents and overall structure were remained the same as those of western Christian arts. In the beginning of 1980s political and social changes of Korean society generated Minjung arts which were totally different from the previous concepts of Christian arts. Through their art works they made serious allegations of inequality and injustice which was rampant in this society. Although their basic motive and inner content were originated from the biblical tradition, the outer content and style of their arts were borrowed mainly from Korean traditional folk arts, and sometimes from Shamanism. Henceforth, the scope and limit of indigenization has widened far beyond than one had previously thought.
