Abstract

This study examines aspects of appropriation art using mechanical and digital reproduction and reconsiders its aesthetic signifi cance. In addition, we looked at the new direction of liberal arts education by examining how the beauty and aesthetics of borrowed works help a different appreciation and understanding of classical paintings.
 Modern art has continued to spread and develop into new art through its encounter with media following the development of science and technology. Media art, a form of combining media with art, generally refers to the introduction of various mass media such as photography, TV, video, and computers into art.
 Appropriation art, which emerged as a result of the development of media, is the creation of new works by using and transforming images of other people's works. The essence of borrowed art is that it creates a multilayered aesthetic of familiarity and newness seen in borrowed works, creating an aesthetic that is diff erent from the original work. It lies in manifesting.
 Recently, images from traditional paintings have been copied and used as important motifs in Korean contemporary art. Borrowing traditional paintings in media art can present a new methodology for art education. For example, in the case of Lee Lee-nam's work <New Geumgangjeondo> (2009), the original image is exposed at the beginning of the video, and the composition and structure of the original work, which is considered familiar, is perceived again. This changes from superfi cial recognition of the original work to actual recognition. You can create an opportunity to do so. After appreciating the work with learners, time to analyze and discuss the original work can lead to new refl ections on the original work. In addition, by allowing learners to freely copy and modify traditional paintings using digital technology, it can stimulate a serious attitude and interest in the original work. Through this, it is judged that there will be enough room to break away from the traditional appreciation attitude based on contemplation and become an active subject of appreciation. Therefore, borrowed art can be expected to expand the scope of learners' aesthetic experience and provide a new experience of appreciating original works as a viable methodology in art education.
