Choi Byungso (1943–2025)

Choi Byung-so (82), a renowned artist known for his “black paintings” created by repeatedly drawing lines on newspaper with ballpoint pens and pencils, died on the 11th.

After graduating from Chung-Ang University's Western Painting Department and Keimyung University Graduate School of Art, he became a leading figure in the Daegu Modern Art Movement in the late 1970s.

Through his “erasing” process—repeatedly drawing and covering newspapers and magazines with ballpoint pens or pencils—he pioneered a unique formal language.

His "Newspaper Erasing" series, where the paper appears charred like burnt wood from his meditative, repetitive strokes, remains iconic.

He received the Lee In-sung Art Prize in 2010.
