The Mono-ha movement

In 1969, Lee Ufan became the theoretician of the Mono-ha movement. This movement rejects Western aesthetics by emphasizing simplicity and the presence of elements, without superfluity. His art is based on elementary forms, such as dots or lines, which take on meaning in their interaction with the environment.
