Dear Friends,
We are pleased to announce that from April 2022, Lee Ufan Arles, a permanent exhibition center for Lee Ufan's paintings and sculptures, will be accessible to the public in the Hotel Vernon in the heart of the city of Arles.
This private mansion, built between the 16th and 18th centuries, was acquired by the Lee Ufan Foundation to become the venue for a presentation of the artist's work in the same way as those already open in Naoshima (Japan) and in Busan (South Korea).
We hope to welcome you to Lee Ufan Arles next spring.
On this occasion, we will also be happy to meet you in the Lee Ufan « Requiem » exhibition which brings together under the curatorship of Alfred Pacquement an important set of 14 new works installed in the ancient necropolis of Alyscamps, one of the main heritage sites of the city of Arles.
Lee Ufan has respectfully invested these ancestral places by displaying his sculptures and paintings in the famous alley of sarcophagi that dot this city of the dead and in the Saint-Honorat church, an unfinished Romanesque building that concludes the tour.
Lee Ufan « Requiem » is viewable from October 30, 2021 to September 30, 2022.
Hoping to see you soon.
