dbo:abstract
  • The Fourth Group (Korean: 제4집단, romanized: Je Sa Jib-Dan) was a Korean avant-garde art collective that existed from June to August in 1970. Led by artist Kim Ku-lim, the group's membership was open to people hailing from diverse backgrounds. According to Kim Ku-lim, the reasoning behind the group's name was that, "By using the number 4, I attempted to break through conventions in the Korean art world as well as in Korean Society because this number carried negative nuances throughout our history." Although the artists could not express openly their anti-government sentiments under the totalitarian Park Chung-hee regime, they produced consciousness-raising art with the goal of realizing a radical utopian vision of society through nonviolent change, a philosophy they described as 'muche'. Under the guise of parodying imported art ideas of the Western avant-garde, The Fourth Group was able to stage their politically charged artwork within an oppressive society. The group's most notable performance was Funeral for Established Culture and Art, which was staged in 1970 on Korea's National Liberation Day. (en)
