문화예술정책 태동기의 예술지원에 관한 분석적 고찰: 박정희 정부를 중심으로

Abstract

In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the enactment of the Culture and Arts Promotion Act (the Act), an institutional device that symbolizes the birth of Korea’s culture and arts policy, this study examines the aspects, characteristics, and limitations of art support when it was first enacted. Coincidentally, this period was the era of the Park Chung-hee government, when the achievements of the government were clearly marked, and it was intended to reinterpret and re-evaluate the culture and arts policies of the government. The analysis revealed that culture and arts policy in Korea began in earnest during the Park Jeong-hee administration, which was equipped with a culture and arts support system such as system (laws), operating organization (Korea Culture and Arts Promotion Agency), and financial resources (culture and arts promotion fund) through the enactment of the Act. In general, various culture and arts policies were implemented based on the main culture and arts related laws centered on the Act, and in terms of the 1st Literary and Arts Promotion Plan. However, it has caused considerable controversy in terms of methodology and performance, such as the purpose and means of policy implementation. Although the Act has regulations for promoting popular arts, it was confirmed that while support was provided centered on fine arts, regulations and controls were applied to popular arts through other laws. The limitations of the early stage of culture and arts policy identified herein are also the tasks assigned to Korea’s culture and arts policy. In the future, implications for devising policy measures to promote the cooperative development of fine art and popular art will be derived.
