Feedback to pyongang-painters.com

Since the launch of this website in January 2009 we received many mails. Almost all of them were positive. We are particularly grateful for your comments and suggestions aimed at helping us improve the quality and services of pyongyang-painters.com. An important suggestion came from several overseas Koreans who asked us to introduce a Korean language version of the site. Yes, this is something we would like to realize during 2009.

Greetings from Pyongyang from artists and Felix Abt

North Korean Jewel paintings

This is a typical North Korean technique. The painting is made with coloured stone powders on rigid panels. No other painting is more time-consuming to produce: in fact, it takes many weeks to finish one. In the past the technique was called "Powder Painting", but Kim Il Sung changed it to "Korean Jewel Painting" to point out that it was developed in Korea using precious Korean stones.

Korean painting, ink painting on paper

This style of painting demands that the artist draw from start to finish without stopping. He cannot correct or draw over what he has painted. This style requires great skill and takes from 10 - 20 years of training.
