Seung-taek Lee | Inside the Installation
Presented in collaboration with the artist and Gallery Hyundai, Seoul, Seung-taek Lee marked the first solo exhibition of Lee’s work in the United States. Lee’s experimental practice holds an influential place in the history of Korean art. Born in 1932, throughout his six-decade career, he has continually challenged traditional notions of identity and history, forging new paths for the artistic expression of nature, philosophy, and spatial experience.
This exhibition celebrates Lévy Gorvy’s representation of Lee with 40 works spanning the late 1950s to the present day. These included his 1960 Non-Sculpture, recently on view at Haus der Kunst, Munich; photographs from his 1971 performance, Wind-Folk Amusement; and several Wind paintings from the 1960s through the present wherein curving lengths of rope give shape to the ephemeral movements of air.
This video brings you inside the installation with Emilio Steinberger, Senior Director at Lévy Gorvy.
