Lee Ufan at Gary Tatintsian Gallery by Christophe C

November 14, 2014 - March 23, 2014

One Man Show at Gary Tatintsian Gallery

From the gallery website:

Lee Ufan personal show at Gary Tatintsian Gallery includes artist's Relatum-silence stone installations, his recent water-colour works and the Dialogue paintings. In his Dialogue series artist creates a site-specific works placing a single, broad, viscous stroke of paint on canvas, setting up a rhythm that exposes and enlivens the emptiness of the space, creating what Lee calls “an open site of power in which things and space do vividly interact.” Limiting his brush strokes to one, two, or three squarelike marks on the pristine white canvas, artist uses grey to express “a vague, ephemeral and uncertain world,” making the tactile marks vibrate, fading in and out of the margins of vision.

Lee Ufan Versailles: June 17 - November 2, 2014 by Christophe C

Studio Lee Ufan is pleased to announce the upcoming opening of

Lee Ufan Versailles

June 17 - November 2, 2014


From the Château de Versailles Spectacles website:

Why choose Lee Ufan as the contemporary artist for 2014 in Versailles?

Dare I say that, again, it is André Le Nôtre who influenced both Alfred Pacquement, who will be the show’s commissioner, as he was the commissioner of the 2013 Giuseppe Penone exhibition, and myself.

A visit to the “Le Nôtre en perspectives. 1613-2013” exhibition unveils an unknown personality, while insisting on the radical nature of his modernism. The latest works on contemporary architecture and aesthetics to which the exhibition’s commissioners Patricia Bouchenot-Déchin and Georges Farhat, have given an unprecedented place, show that Le Nôtre can leads us on the path of minimalism and to the notion of void. The presence of Peter Walker’s work for Ground Zero in New York in the itinerary they trace through the centuries is a spectacular testimony to this.

In the light of this, bringing Lee Ufan’s vision to Versailles seemed appropriate, it is less disconcerting than we believe and draws us into his silent and captivating poetry
