Admiralty Asia Society Hong Kong Center｜LEE Kuang-Yu: Sculpting the Void

Description

Lee Kuang-Yu’s sculptures are deeply inspired by Eastern philosophy and the aesthetics of landscapes, emphasizing the fusion of the mind and nature. Drawing from the essence of Cubism and Surrealism, he developed his own unique hollowed-out sculptural language—"the open void." Lee excels at integrating his works with public spaces and natural environments, transforming these spaces into extensions of the artworks themselves and allowing the pieces to take on new forms in different settings.

The Asia Society Hong Kong Center, a blend of historical landmarks and contemporary architecture, is surrounded by lush greenery. In this unique setting, nine of Lee’s representative works will be displayed, harmoniously integrating with the surrounding environment. This exhibition not only marks Lee’s first large-scale solo exhibition in Hong Kong, but also signifies the multidimensional intersection of his works with modern architecture and natural environments. The unique atmosphere of the Asia Society Hong Kong Center breathes new life into the artworks, offering the audience a layered and immersive aesthetic experience.
