Kim, you might check to see if there were any "official" military
artists during the Korean War who might have continued to work after the
war.

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Artists Focusing on the Korean War

Hi everyone,

For a paper I am currently working on I am in search of information on
artists who produced work about the Korean War between 1955-57.  The
artists themselves do not have to be of Korean or even Asian descent,
and there are no specifications for what type of medium they used.  I
have attempted a few searches to find any artists that fit into this
category but have come up short, perhaps I am neglecting some obvious
sources.  If anyone knows of an artist that fits into this criteria
(the time frame in particular is imperative), I would be extremely
grateful.

Thanks,
kim
