I visited the solo exhibition by Lee Ufan. The venue is SCAI THE BATHHOUSE.
SCAI THE BATHHOUSE
The show is composed entirely of paintings, presenting new works from the Dialogue series that Lee Ufan has been developing since 2000. Dialogue, which began in a single tone of gray, has unfolded over roughly two decades into a richly colored body of work.

There is a beauty that the empty space itself draws out — an aesthetics of subtraction.
