A Solo Exhibition by Lee Min-Chung Shui-Shui Taiwan-women Ein-Dau Taiwan-men Portrait project
by IT Park Gallery & Photo Studio
Location: IT Park Gallery & Photo Studio
Artist(s): LI Minchung
Date: 11 Aug - 8 Sep 2012

Lee Min Chung works at the cutting edge of e-generation art in Taiwan's contemporary art world.

Born in 1961, he was part of the first generation in Taiwan to be attracted to video games, with their exciting sounds, brilliant pictures, rapid movement and full-on sensory stimulus. His experience with games gradually led to the development of a form of surreal art that attempts to transcend the ordinary world and its cares. Abstract oils are Lee's specialty. In the one-dimensional space of the flat canvas, he constructs multiple obscure perspectives and creates a sense of space through overlapping elements, as well as utilizing bright colors and strong contrasts. Symbols such as cats or cartoon characters may emerge from the depths of a work. An audience hypnotized by the visual stimuli may feel drawn into the sort of "virtual" state common in video games. Lee is conducting a figurative art project at weekends, "A Hundred Portraits, " featured on the social networking website Facebook, to create a fascinating blend of virtual and real worlds.
