Summary

Two media outlets covering Shin Jang-sik, Chairman of the Korean Contemporary Printmaking Association, on the opening of 〈Do Print! 60 Years of Korean Contemporary Printmaking〉 at Gyeonggi Museum of Art on July 4, 2018. Newspim (Lee Hyun-gyeong) reported the press preview the day before, capturing Shin's pride that "Korean printmaking traces back to the Tripitaka Koreana" and tracing the sixty-year arc of Korean contemporary printmaking. Newsis (Park Hyun-joo) followed on the opening day with an interview and a paired photo article, recalling Shin as the painter of 〈Mt. Geumgang from Sangpaldam〉 — the work hung at the April 27 inter-Korean summit — and noting the 〈Mt. Geumgang〉 woodblock he placed in the exhibition for visitors to print and take home themselves.
