To Sang-bong's Wood Box and Bottle at Google Arts & Culture

I've recently discovered some really wonderful art by Korean artists. To my dismay, I know almost nothing about Korean art - but thanks to the internet, I'm beginning to discover some works I really like.

I've started poking around Google Arts & Culture, and it's actually pretty great - they feature various artists, various topics, various museums from one day to the next.

Somehow, one of those explorations led me to this terrific painting, Wood Box and Bottle.

Recently during my daily practice of looking at art, I was poking around various pages at the Art Institute of Chicago, and I came across this article about Kinds of Red.

It had thumbnails of some beautiful works - I was expecially taken with the red diacritics in the 1000-year-old Qur'an, and the advertisement by Elsa Kula.

But what delighted me the very most was learning about the website's feature that lets you filter images by color. The article links to artworks matching a nice bright red as an example.
