In 2024, the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam presents a solo exhibition dedicated to Lee Ufan, the celebrated Korean-Japanese artist and leading figure of the Mono-ha movement. Known for his restrained, contemplative works in painting and sculpture, Lee Ufan invites viewers to slow down and engage with the spaces between objects and marks.
The exhibition places his work in conversation with the Rijksmuseum's renowned collection, creating a thought-provoking encounter between contemporary minimalism and the Dutch Golden Age.
