The Gutai movement is an integral part of the history of modern Asian art.
Danseahva - Korean monochrome painting. Artists not only use white, but also black, red, blue, yellow, green, and neutral colors, such as brown, beige, and gray, which are considered “rejection” colors. They tried to reveal the spiritual, material and executive nature, superior color.

Din Yi is considered the pioneer of Chinese abstract art. Yu Yuhan is one of the most representative artists of political pop art in the avant-garde art movement of the 1990s.
