In this standout episode of “Meet The Artists,” presented by Nowness and Art Basel, we sent a nimble crew to the Kamakura home of 84-year-old master of modern art: Lee Ufan. The film, soundtracked by avant-garde composer Flora Yin-Wong, serves as a blueprint to understanding Ufan's ascetic minimalism and how his semi-centennial survey of materials has led to a uniquely philosophical approach to art. Featured across Nowness and Art Basel websites and social accounts, and archived on Nowness' YouTube channel.
