In the development process of modern Taiwanese sculpture, the emergence of LEE Kuang-Yu marks the growth and maturation of Western style sculpture in Taiwan. As well as realistic shapes and accurate imitation of facial expressions, he creates abstract meaning from pure form, with an understanding of spiritual space and mastery of rhythm and texture.
Modern Taiwanese sculpture first developed with the classical realism of Huang Tu-Shui in the 1920s, yielding to the advance of the vivid deconstruction of modernism after the war. LEE Kuang-Yu grew up at exactly the time when Taiwan’s modernism reached its peak, and was about to enter into what was called the “homeland” or “nativist” culture movement. He cleverly combined and nourished these two phases, becoming a symbol of second generation post-war Taiwanese sculpture.
