Lee Seung-Taek, a pioneer of Korean avant-garde and experimental art, has long experimented with the potential of Korea’s self-sustaining modernity through his concept of “bundling” pottery and stone. Before and after the 1970s, his works engaged with natural phenomena and non-material elements such as wind, water, and smoke. Since the mid-1980s, he has expanded the scope of his practice to encompass performance, large-scale installation, and photography. Lee’s Greening Campaign is a series expanding his interests in ecology and the environment, after being introduced in Artist Planting Moss (1976) which was exhibited at the 2nd SEOUL in MEDIA FOOD, CLOTHING, SHELTER.
