He himself often used the term 'anti-concept' or 'nonsculpture,' which is perhaps why most art critics Interpret his work in this context. But he also used these concepts as a manifestation of his rejection of existing ideas and orders, meaning that his real work had no relation with any sculptural concept whose initial goal was plasticity." In the concept of nonsculpture, sculpture is neither anti- nor pro- in existing art, but a rupture and a direct rejection. It's also important, in the saure context, to distinguish anticoncept and non-sculpture from the essential negative revelation. Although Lee's work manifested a sharp and critical break from existing art also declared itself at odds with and suspicious of given ideas and existing orders in the particular world of Korean art. We should look at his work, then. a strategic negation of a given situation rather than as a finality, a context in which it understands perfectly the principles of contemporary art, which is rai and unlike other Korean art, and knows how to express Codes and Idioms in a unique way. On the other hand, one might say that it's the concept of 'non-materializatio that convincingly describes Lee's aesthetic direction. This concept, however, goes beyond the medium it describes -- so-called formless works such as wind, water, fire and so on. Non-materialization is the essential concept and the current phenomenon that has appeared in contemporary art. It is an important methodology, one that supports the existente of the artwork and the existential aspect of a hont of forms. It is the outcome of the constant questions and answers in discourse: What is the artisl meaning of the artwork? How can we reize it? And what is the meaning and value of the artwork in our lives? Contemporary art appears to be a conceptual act that transcends the .. (Introduction) , ISBN-13: 9788995267455

Celant , Germano (Ed.): Architecture & arts, 1900/2004. A century of creative projects in building, design, cinema, painting, sculpture. Exhibition held at the Palazzo Ducale in Genoa, Oct. 2, 2004-Feb. 13, 2005. Milan : Skira ; New York : Distributed in North America by Rizzoli, 2004. ISBN: 9788876240096
Umschlag leicht berieben, sonst gutes Exemplar. - The exhibition "Architecture & Arts 1900/2000"-organized by Germano Celant, with exhibition design by Gae Aulenti and graphics by Pierluigi Cerri-closes the autumn season of the celebration of Genoa 2004 - European Capital of Culture. It is dedicated to architecture and its inroads into the various and sundry artistic expressions of the twentieth century and of today, to its 'contamination by and osmotic absorption of the languages of painting, sculpture, literature, photography and cinema. This is an exposition of great value for a number of reasons. First and foremost, for the presence of works by some of the world's most renowned and acclaimed contemporary artists and architects and the presence of works by those who have deeply influenced the history of art and architecture, including the protagonists of the avant-garde movements of the first few decades of the last century, furthermore, because it is characterized by unheralded innovation, such as its expansion beyond the confines of the conventional conception of museum space into the surrounding city fabric. The Palazzo Ducale is the heart of the event, but the exhibition extends beyond its walls into a number of other urban spaces, seeking to interpret them in new ways. The city is involved for its great scenographie potential and for its wealth of painted buildings, one of Genoa's outstanding features and a magnificent exemplification of its expressive quest and successful integration, already some time ago, of art and architecture. But it is involved above all for its role as a contemporary city, perfectly in step with its times, a crucible for contemporary culture and workshop for social relations, where the expressions of the moment are many and range from architecture to the arts, to multiculturalism, to research and to new technologies. And often Genoa has even been ahead of its times. Just take for example the architectural work of the Eighties and Nineties, which radically altered the face of the city, or the artists and architects who began what would blossom into international careers here. And Genoa, "Ea Superba", has been and continues to be a transit point for an immense variety of avant-garde trends and expressions both in visual arts and in cinema, music, theater, graphics and cartoons.
