Abstract

This study is aimed at making an in-depth analysis the formation background & influence of Oriental thought with focus on the Oriental dance expressed by Choi, Seung-hee while she constructed her art around the globe in the midst of the period of turbulence. Through this, this study is going to look into how an artist’s thought was sublimated in works. This study conducted this research with focus on literature review, and used Choi, Seung-hee’s writings, Choi, Seung-hee’s talks, Choi, Seung-hee’s critical biography, Choi, Seung-hee’s books, and Choi, Seung-hee’s performance works & review, etc. as the basic data. Choi, Seung-hee’s thought embraced Oriental thought by starting from ’Things Korean’, and acquired the whole of Oriental dance. Choi, Seung-hee’s developmental stages of Oriental dance went through the national dance awakening period, Oriental dance self-awareness period, and Eastern art of dance establishment period. It can be explained in detail as the awakening period when Choi, Seung-hee found out the balance between things Korean and Oriental dance by integrating the nation’s traditional dance with the Western dance, the Oriental dance self-consciousness period, during which Choi, Seung-hee made the Oriental art of dance known to the world by creating the Oriental dance based on counter-consciousness against the West, and the establishment period for integrating the Oriental dance while Choi, Seung-hee ranged over Chinese cultures and art and embraced even the Southeast Asian dance. In the process, Choi, Seung-hee pursued and gradually completed the conquest of the Western dance and the internationalization of the national dance beyond Oriental value. Accordingly, the significance of Choi-Seung-hee Art World lies in the establishment of Oriental dance which achieves harmony with the Western dance on the basis of Oriental thought beyond the level of revival & development of national dance. Through the establishment of the national dance, the thought on Oriental value from Yanagi Muneyoshi’s things Korean is expressed and integrated by Choi, Seung-hee’s Oriental dance. Choi, Seung-hee’s representative works include 「Bosaldo」(Bodhisattva’s Path), 「Chushim」(Late Autumn), 「Okjeokuigok」(Music of Jade Pipe), 「Jeukeungmu」(Impromptu Dance_, 「Muhon」( Dance Soul), 「Myeongbigok」, 「Changhen ge」, 「Dance of Temple」, and 「Night of July 7th」, etc. In addition, Muyongsi(Dance Poetry), Dance Suite, Dance Drama Script Collection, and Basics of Joseon people’s Dance, which are integrated by Choi, Seoung-hee’s Oriental Dance, are the books integrating her thought. Choi, Seung-hee expressed the artistic value of her own dance at a transpersonal national level. In addition, Choi, Seung-hee is unrivaled in that she made full use of her expressional opportunity and carried out her social responsibility as an artist. Accordingly, this observed how an artist’s thought is sublimated in works , through which this study hopes this research data could contribute the development of dance art theory and dance creation work.
