Review

 * In July 2008, adjunct professor Okjo Kim (art critic) evaluated Dong-shin Bae as an artist who pursued the deepest flow of our spirit with the easiest materials and expression methods.


 * In the August 1973 issue of ShinDongA, art critic Lee Kyung-seong said, “In the barren Korean watercolor group, the existence of Dong-shin Bae is absolutely essential. Of course, the place he listed as an author was in a foreign country called Japan. Here, he studied the technique and spirit of watercolor newly accepted from Europe, and started his path as a writer by getting along with them. He was honest and clean in nature, and he was a so-called Ecole de Parisian artist, who did not know the desire of water. Therefore, his life is truly a continuation of the pure lives of artists. He made many friends, made works, and has existed as such a writer... In a word, the world of painter Dong-shin Bae's work is based on a large scale, refined technology, and sophisticated colors. The direct and bold composition and the speedy movement of the brush are the source of the charm of his work.
