Lee Ufan: Paintings, Sculptures is a catalogue of Lee Ufan’s work, exhibited at the 52nd International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia in 2007.
This monograph explores the minimalist and meditative work of Lee Ufan, a leading figure in the Mono-ha (School of Things) movement and contemporary art. Focusing on his serene paintings and sculptures, the book highlights Ufan’s philosophical approach to space, materiality, and perception. His restrained brushstrokes (in his From Point and From Line series) and carefully placed stone-and-steel sculptures embody harmony between human intervention and natural elements.
Published by Mudima, a foundation dedicated to avant-garde art, the volume includes critical essays, plates of major works, and insights into Ufan’s Zen-influenced aesthetics. A contemplative tribute to an artist who transforms simplicity into profound encounters with being and emptiness.
