Within spaces designed by the artist, the exhibition Lee Ufan: Quiet Resonance distils over six decades of considered experimentation into a series of new paintings and sculptures created especially for the Art Gallery. Lee’s sparing use of simple materials, including stone, steel and canvas, has a quiet force that encourages contemplation and consideration of the physical and intellectual self in relation to the work.
The tour includes the galleries surrounding Quiet resonance which contain a discerning selection of works – paintings, prints and ceramics – that relate to Lee Ufan and his world, and are all from the Gallery’s permanent collection.
