Explore on ExhibitMapSouth Korean artist Lee Ufan (born 1936, lives in Kamakura, Japan) has been awarded the 32nd Wolfgang Hahn Prize by the Gesellschaft für Moderne Kunst am Museum Ludwig. His art brings together contrasting forces such as emptiness and tension, silence and energy. As co-founder of the Japanese minimalist Mono-ha movement (School of Things), a collective of artists in Tokyo between 1968 and 1975, he continues to seek a harmonious reordering of things.
