BRUSSELS.-The Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium will open an exhibit of works of art made by Lee Ufan through June 29. Lee Ufan was born in 1936 in South-Korea. He received a traditional education including the learning of calligraphy, poesy and painting. At Tokyo, in the fifties he is one of the founders of the Mono-Ha (« School of Things ») which recommends a minimal style and the exclusive use of elements of natural origin. Those principles are expressed in the « Correspondences » serie, initiated at the end of the eighties : the painter limits his action to the application of wide marks of a brush dipped into pigments and oil on a white background. His sculptures only comprise a mere stone on which a heavy steel plate is affixed. The artist doesnt modify the one neither the other ; he only interferes to put them together : « A trite metal plate could be a thought. The vague stones could be the air. The resonance space of the work enlarged, vibrating all around ».
