Venice Top Museum Spotlights an 80-Year-Old Performance Artist as Lee Ufan Shows in San Marco

A leading art museum in Venice has brought in an 80-year-old performance artist, while San Marco Square is also drawing attention with an exhibition by Lee Ufan, a Korean master of Dansaekhwa. The original report describes a man and a woman starting to walk toward each other from opposite ends of the Great Wall of China. They had promised to meet in the middle and hold a wedding ceremony, but the five years spent waiting for permission from the Chinese government faded that promise. The Venice museum setting and the San Marco Square exhibition have placed performance art and Korean monochrome painting side by side in the spotlight. Source: mk.co.kr
