The Lee Ufan Exhibition

 "Expressive action with sensing a rupture in existence. The desire to eliminate this gap and become fused with existence itself becomes the will to create art" Lee Ufan.

"Lee was one of the leaders of Mono-Ha, an art movement that arouse between 1968 and 1972 among loose constellation of artists in Tokyo and remained active through the late 1970s". (Art of encounter: Lee Ufan and Mono-Ha).

What I liked the most about Lee Ufan exhibition was that all his art works have to do with infinity, vision and  perception. Ufan as part of the Mono-Ha used man made materials and natural materials as well to create art. For instance, Ufan used a square glass and dropped a stone right in the middle of the glass braking it to create something new. His art work is very interesting.
