Lee Bul @ Thaddaeus Ropac

Paintings from Lee Bul’s Perdu series, includes new works created especially for the exhibition.  Conceived as single and multi-panel works, these sumptuous mother-of-pearl and acrylic paintings exemplify the artist’s practice by bringing together past, present and future temporalities through the materials and references they incorporate.   Lee blends traditional methods and materials with a futuristic aesthetic, exploring the notion of utopia and its imaginative potential to reveal its darker undertones.
