Yu, Yeong-Guk tried abstract art, which is the most experimental art in that time, established the footing of abstract art in our modern artistic history. And he had continued to deepen his world based on abstract formative arts. He used natural motif such as mountains, clouds, and lakes based on a question : He organized his modernism by bring natural elements into his painting to diagram them into abstract forms, and reorganizing them into constructive forms. The composition in his painting is naturally made up of lines, planes and interactive relations between colors. In his abstract world, colors have superiority to forms. When colors are considered as representative, it indicates liberating of colors in two meanings. The first, as every expressionist painting will do, indicates liberation of colors from a reproductive function, and the second indicates liberation of colors from a reproductive function, and the second indicates complete liberation of colors from restraint of forms. He reaches to abstract by action of all the factors which are abstract. His painting is geometrical abstract made by several figures made of simple and straight lines that spread like flashes rather than abundant use of diverse colors. He recreated a natural emergency using his own method. Yu, Yeong-Guk occupied an important position in the introduction of Korean early abstract arts. Through this process, he opened the possibilities of describing the inner and spirit of things with abstract pictures. In other words, he opened a new world to abstract of Korean nature through his quest for natural subject matter.
