초록

The purpose of this study is to examine the life and artistic activities of Kim Tae-seok, who, along with Oh Se-chang (吳世昌), was recognized as master of modern calligraphy and engravings.
Kim Tae-seok’s family was of middle class, and he became magistrate of Pyeongchang County because he engraved the seals of Emperor Gojong and King Yeongchin while he was an official of the Ministry of the Royal Household and he participated in reproducing the royal seals after a fire at Gyeongungung Palace. Kim Tae-seok was the disciple of Kim Seok-jun (金奭準), who was a leading commoner poet of the time and a late student of Kim Jeong-hui (金正喜). The theories on poetry and calligraphy Kim Tae-seok learned from Kim Seok-jun succeeds the academic line of Kim Jeong-hui and Yi Sang-jeok (李尙迪). Kim Tae-seok acquired broad knowledge of engraving through his association with Jeong Hak-gyo (丁學敎) and Kang Jin-hui (姜璡熙), the best calligraphers and painters as well as engravers of the time. These relationships were influenced by the bridging role played by Kim Tae-seok’s teacher Kim Seok-jun, connections Kim Tae-seok cultivated during his participation in the project to engrave royal seals, and the long-standing friendship of Kim Tae-seok’s family and ancestors.
Kim Tae-seok was dispatched to Japan and Qing China as art examiner in 1908, and he spent nearly 20 years in China. In particular, he displayed his abilities to the fullest when he engraved the National Seal of the Republic of China and the seal of title of its first de facto president Yuan Shikai (袁世凱) while working as an official in the Bureau of Seals of the newly created Republic of China. Meanwhile, Kim Tae-seok actively participated in the operation of Heunghwa Industrial Bank (興華實業銀行), which was established in Beijing in 1922 with the aim of realizing an armed independence movement through the farmer-soldier system (屯田兵制). The record of his participation in the independence movement in Beijing will serve to elevate his status as an artist.
After returning from China, he toured Jeonju and other Jeolla provinces in the early 1930s and used calligraphy and engraving exhibitions to vigorously display his skills. The impact of his calligraphy and engraving was great enough, despite the short period in which he was active, to create a group of followers led by Choi Kyu-sang (崔圭祥) and Lee Kwang-ryul (李光烈). Kim Tae-seok formed a nationwide calligraphy organization named Daedong-hanmukhoe (大東翰墨會) after permanently returning to Korea from Japan just before Korea’s liberation. Through this organization, he played a leading role in the calligraphy world by searching for a way to unite the leftists and the rightists through exhibitions at a time when the two sides were sharply divided. In 1948, thirty years after the establishment of the provisional government of Korea, Kim Tae-seok led the project on making the first national seal of the Republic of Korea at the request of Rhee Syng-man, its first president. This became the last achievement of Kim Tae-seok’s life.
