Ha is one of the leading members of the Dansaekhwa or monochrome painting movement in Korea, which began in the 1970s. Born in 1935, Ha studied painting at Hongik University, graduating in 1959. Later, he served as the dean of the Fine Arts College at his alma mater from 1990 to 1994. From 2001 to 2006, Ha was the director of the Seoul Museum of Art. Ha is best known for his Conjunction series established in the 1970s, which changed the definition of painting. He uses a painting method called baeapbeop, a unique way of pushing oil paint from the back of the hemp canvas through the coarse weave, instead of painting on the canvas.
