The artwork, “From Line,” created by Lee Ufan in 1978, is a significant piece within the Minimalism movement and falls under the abstract genre.
In “From Line,” the artist employs a minimalist aesthetic featuring a series of red and faded red marks painted along a horizontal line on a neutral beige background. The progression of these marks, from bold to faint, suggests a contemplative exploration of space, repetition, and the passage of time. The deliberate placement and gradation of the marks evoke a sense of rhythm and subtle movement, characteristic of Lee Ufan’s meditative and disciplined approach to abstract art.
