Tomorrow the Centro Cultural Coreano in Madrid presents the exhibition The Hangeul Flower Has Blossomed, which features 35 works by writer Kang Byung-in, who has been discovering and promoting the diversity and beauty of the Hangeul style through the use of calligraphy and calligraphy in English since the late 1990s to convey the meaning and elegance of this Korean alphabet.
The exhibition, which will be open to the public until 25 November, showcases a branch of modern Korean calligraphy that actively reveals the meaning and sound of writing based on traditional calligraphy and uniformity, which is the basis of all art.
Hangeul is a Korean alphabet created by King Sejong the Great (1397-1450) in 1443 so that ordinary people who cannot write can easily learn it. The creation principle of Hangeul contains a philosophy based on the principles of nature and a harmonious life of human beings.
In addition, at the opening ceremony of the exhibition at 7pm, there will be a recital and gayageum performance by a team of Spanish professor Pilar Gonzalez from the Autonomous University of Madrid, under the theme of the elegant writing performance of Kang Byung-in and Kang Byung.
