The artwork, titled “From Line,” was created by the artist Lee Ufan in 1970. Belonging to the Minimalism art movement, this piece is classified within the abstract genre.
The artwork presents a repetitive pattern of blue rectangular and oval shapes that form horizontal lines against a neutral, light beige background. The deliberate arranging and spacing of these shapes suggest a disciplined, methodical approach characteristic of Minimalist aesthetics. The uniformity and repetition evoke a contemplative and meditative visual experience, emphasizing simplicity and the subtle complexities of line and form. Through its restrained palette and meticulous composition, the piece exemplifies the minimalist ethos of reducing elements to their essential forms, inviting viewers to engage with the spatial relationships and rhythmic qualities of the lines.
