Lee Ufan

Lee Ufan is a leading figure of the Mono-ha movement, which has garnered significant international recognition. Since the late 1960s, he has played a central role in this avant-garde movement, which challenges traditional artistic expression by emphasizing the relationship between materials and space. His work is characterized by minimalist yet deeply meditative compositions, including paintings with rhythmic, repetitive brushstrokes and sculptural installations that combine natural stones and steel plates. By deliberately restraining the act of creation, he explores the harmony between art and its surrounding environment, evoking a profound sense of spatial awareness and emptiness.
