해방공간에서 민족주의 사진단체의 활동과 한계

Abstract

In this thesis, I will examine the activity status of the <Josunsajingeonsulwiwonhae> for the construction of the photographic society immediately after liberation, the trend of photographic works, and the process of differentiation into left and right. In addition, in the division of the left and right wing, we examined critically the activities and achievements of the <Josunsajinyesulyeonguhae>, which promoted the banner of nationalist cultural construction of the right wing. The first society of photographers group constructed after liberation was the <Josunsajingeonsulwiwonhae>, formed in August 1945 by Park Pil-ho. Participation targets included art photographers, photo-journalists, portrait photographers, merchants of materials. The <Exhibition of Liberation Memorial>, organized by this group, appeared new photographers such as Kim Jinsoo, Lee Dongho , Jeong Dosun and Lee Myeong-dong, who led Korean photography as critics of realism photography. On March, 1946, photographers who have been active in art society since the Japanese colonial period were formed as the center and formed the <Josunsajinyesulyeonguhae>. In terms of members, it could be said to be the successor of the <Josunsajingeonsulwiwonhae>. They consisted the scope of their activities to 'Art Photography' to clarify the organization's identity. The <Josunsajinyesulyeonguhae> hosted the 《National Photographic Arts Contest》, which produced national photography enthusiasm and expanded its base. This was a time when members of Korean society tried to restore independence in their own ways. Since the distress of the past 36 years originated from the fact that, above all, the sovereignty of the state was lost, efforts to restore Korean self-sufficiency at the time proceeded toward emphasizing pure ethnic characteristics. Korean photography was the same.
