Lee Ufan in conversation with Hans Ulrich Obrist
What: Lee Ufan will be in conversation with Serpentine Galleries Artistic Director, Hans Ulrich Obrist.
Lee Ufan (b. 1936 in Kyongnam, South Korea) came to prominence in the late 1960s as one of the major theoretical and practical proponents of the avant-garde Mono-ha group. The first contemporary art movement in Japan to gain international recognition, Mono-ha (Object School) rejected Western notions of representation, focusing on the relationships between materials and perceptions rather than on expression or intervention. Ufan’s minimalist works using only two materials – steel and stone – are characteristic of this school of thought.
When: Tuesday 6 February 2018 from 6pm.
Where: Korean Cultural Centre UK
The event is Free, but booking is required. More information is available at http://www.serpentinegalleries.org/exhibitions-events/lee-ufan-conversation-hans-ulrich-obrist
