Lee’s practice is defined by an austere formal language that nonetheless carries an intense bodily presence. In Brushstroke K14 (Lot 24), from his signature Brushstroke series, the artist transforms carbon powder into a richly textured medium, leaving decisive, rhythmically charged traces across the paper surface. In Untitled (Lot 27), a canvas work executed in 2016, he further develops this language through the layering of acrylic and carbon ink, generating a translucent sense of depth. The resulting black geometric forms appear to hover within a threedimensional space, dissolving the boundary between painting and sculpture, and embodying the East Asian philosophical notion of the interdependence of void and form (xu shi xiang sheng).
Lee Bae’s artistic achievements have received significant international recognition. He has been awarded the “Artist of the Year” by the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea (MMCA), as well as the Ordre national de la Légion d’honneur in France. His works are held in major public collections worldwide, including the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (MMCA), Seoul; Leeum Museum of Art; Seoul Museum of Art; the Guimet National Museum of Asian Arts, Paris; the Musée Cernuschi; and the Museo del Prado, Madrid. In 2024, he was invited to present a major solo project during the Venice Biennale, further affirming his ability to translate a deeply rooted Eastern philosophy into a universal visual language that transcends cultural boundaries.

pathway for self-healing. “Self-Obliteration” refers to the dissolution of the individual into the boundless universe through infinitely extending imagery, while the repeated layering of “infinity nets” and “polka dots” embodies the inner rhythm of life’s continuous proliferation.
Morning (1981) reflects a moment of introspective transition following her return to Japan from New York. The piece combines pastel, ink, and collage, placing a realistic bird silhouette within an oval composition, surrounded by delicate, celllike network patterns. Subtle ink washes create a profound atmosphere, allowing figuration and illusion to achieve a quiet balance. The bird imagery also serves as a metaphor for accessing her inner universe, transforming suffering into a poetic force of healing.

Created in 2008 and titled Pine Whispers in a Silent Valley, this horizontally elongated composition unfolds a sense of expansive depth. Ink tones follow the tension and release of the paper fibers, drifting like mountain mists, with pine forms emerging and
receding in quiet resonance. The brushwork—at once fractured and diffused—evokes a hushed stillness, as if the wind has just subsided. Vital energy circulates between presence and absence, articulating a dialogue between nature and inner consciousness.
At this stage, Liu continues his experimental approach to modern ink, integrating techniques such as rubbing, crumpling, and washes to emphasize texture and the spontaneity of natural effects. Transforming traditional brush and ink into a near-abstract visual language, the work transcends representational landscape, embodying his mature stylistic shift from form toward atmosphere and qi-driven expression.

During the 1970s and 1980s, Ai undertook repeated journeys to the Tibetan Plateau. For the artist, this vast and austere landscape was not merely a subject for plein-air observation, but a site of existential projection.
Influenced in part by the American realist painter Andrew Wyeth, Ai Xuan developed a distinctive “poetic realism,” synthesising Western representational techniques with an Eastern introspective sensibility. In his works, Tibet is no longer a picturesque landscape, but rather an enduring allegory of solitude, time, and existence.
Painted in 1989, Sounds Getting Away articulates this mature visual language with clarity and restraint. A solitary figure stands against a vast, snow-covered expanse, their expression calm yet detached, gaze directed toward an unreachable horizon. The boundless white terrain is rendered in stark contrast to the finely described textures of the foreground, generating a suspended and profound sense of time. The “fading song” thus becomes more than the disappearance of sound; it signifies the sublimation of memory and emotion into silence, transformed into an unending inner resonance.

rhythm that conveys a serene and unhurried vision of the Venetian landscape. Through this confident orchestration of color, Liao demonstrates a fully matured painterly language, refined to a state of consummate mastery.
Drawing upon his recollections of travels in Europe, the artist transforms memory and lived experience into a visual articulation of natural beauty on canvas. In Venice, brilliant blues evoke the shimmering surface of water, intersecting forms suggest the movement of boats, while delicate touches of pink animate the riverside walkways. In the foreground, subtle passages of ochre converse with pale whites in the distance, creating a layered chromatic dialogue across the composition. This richly orchestrated visual field is rendered through Liao Chi-Chun’s assured brushwork and sensitivity to light and line, positioning the work as a representative masterpiece of the 1960s period.

Christie's Hong Kong, Mar 29, 2025, lot 231, US$ 1,052,857 sold
Chu Teh-Chun (1920–2014) stands as a preeminent Chinese-born, French naturalized master of modern art. Alongside Zao Wou-Ki and Wu Guanzhong, he is celebrated as one of the “Three Musketeers of Chinese artists in France,” collectively forging a new trajectory for twentieth-century Chinese art. In 1997, Chu was elected to the Académie des Beaux-Arts, becoming the first artist of Chinese origin to receive this distinction—an honor that affirms his singular achievement in synthesizing the spirit of Eastern ink traditions with the language of Western abstraction.
At the core of his practice lies a form of lyrical abstraction, in which the Chinese aesthetic principle of qiyun shengdong (spirit resonance and life movement) is transmuted into a visual poetry of shifting light and atmosphere, transcending the cultural boundaries between East and West.
Painted in 2004, Limites franchies exemplifies the artist’s late style, in which his brushwork attains an increasing sense of freedom and fluency. Radiant passages of yellow and white burst forth from a deep, saturated blue ground, while calligraphic lines—charged with dynamic energy—interweave across the surface, disrupting any static compositional order and unleashing a primordial force evocative of cosmic genesis. Drawing upon the Chinese pictorial principle of the interplay between void and solid, the work transforms color beyond mere visual presence into a conduit for the circulation of qi.
This painting stands as a compelling testament to Chu’s mature synthesis, revealing an artistic vision that, even
as it transcends formal and cultural boundaries, retains a profound vitality and boundless creative force.
Chu explained, “It doesn’t matter whether my creative urge is stimulated by the beautiful sights I’ve seen, or old memories and emotions that welled up inside of me, as long as I’m in front of the canvas, my sensitivity will be kindled.”
Chu Teh-Chun’s life was marked by a sustained pursuit of poetic expression and an exploration of the fundamental nature of the universe. He not only expanded the expressive possibilities of Western abstract art, but also infused traditional Chinese aesthetics with a renewed and distinctly modern vitality. His works resemble silent symphonies, in which oil pigment, shifting light, and calligraphic brushwork converge to guide the viewer into a pure and timeless spiritual realm, leaving a luminous and enduring legacy within the history of contemporary art.

The given name of Zao Wou-ki, “Wou-ki” (無極), is rooted in Daoist philosophy, a term first articulated in Laozi’s Tao Te Ching, where it signifies the boundless origin of the cosmos and the eternal state of all existence.
“In Zao Wou-ki’s work one can see how the Chinese vision of the universe, where flow and distance reflect the spirit of contemplation more than the object of contemplation, has been transformed into a modern vision of universal relevance.”

As one of the most influential Chinese artists of the modern era, Zao Wou-ki masterfully employed the language of Western abstraction to embody the metaphysical spirit of Daoist thought. His oeuvre, shaped by historical upheaval and cultural migration, reveals a rich evolution across distinct periods. Through subtle evocations of the universe and deeply personal experience, Zao distilled a refined synthesis of Eastern philosophy and Western artistic expression, achieving a poetic and enduring visual language.
In 1954, Zao Wou-ki decisively abandoned figuration, liberating himself from the influence of Klee and immersing in the realm of abstraction with a newfound freedom and individuality. Reflecting on this pivotal transformation in his autobiography, the artist recalled: “Then, little by little, signs became forms, the background gave rise to space. Through constant reworking—erasing, repainting, beginning anew— what lay within me seemed to emerge. My paintings began to move; forms surged forth, and I dared to use

colors I had once feared.” — Autoportrait (Zao Wou-ki and Françoise Marquet, trans. Liu Li, Artist Publishing Co., Taipei, 1992, p. 104).
The present work, Abstract Landscape, executed in 1954, stands as an early exemplar of the artist’s abstract idiom. Here, one witnesses the gradual transformation of tangible forms into abstract linear expressions. Simplified motifs—still lifes, floral elements, and boat-like shapes—evolve into calligraphic signs reminiscent of ancient scripts, traversing a profound spatial field. These forms guide the viewer’s imagination toward the archaic mystique of Shang oracle bone inscriptions and inscriptions cast on ancient bronze vessels. Fine, unbroken black lines weave across the composition, bridging antiquity and modernity, and giving rise to a quivering, luminous vitality. Layers of softly modulated color washes evoke the restrained elegance of Eastern ink traditions, while the richness of chromatic and luminous effects reflects the artist’s engagement with Western painting.
Xu Bing (b. 1955, Chongqing) stands among the most internationally influential figures in contemporary Chinese art. A graduate of the Printmaking Department at the Central Academy of Fine Arts, Beijing (1981), Xu is distinguished by his rigorous command of form and his incisive exploration of the nature of language. By the 1990s, his artistic achievements had already been canonized in leading art historical publications, including Art Past, Art Present and other authoritative surveys of global art.
In 1990, Xu Bing relocated to the United States at the invitation of the University of Wisconsin. In 1999, in recognition of his groundbreaking transformation of traditional Chinese printing and calligraphy into a contemporary idiom, he was awarded the prestigious MacArthur Fellowship. This was followed by a series of major international honors, including the Fukuoka Asian Culture Prize (2003), the BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art’s International Award (commonly known as the “Artes Mundi Prize”) (2004), and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Southern Graphics Council International (2006). Since returning to China in 2008, Xu has served as Vice President of the Central Academy of Fine Arts and Chairman of its Academic Committee, and continues to maintain an active practice between Beijing and New York.
The monumental work presented in this sale, Landscript (2004), represents a consummate articulation of Xu Bing’s lifelong engagement with the concept of the shared origins of calligraphy and painting. At first glance, the composition evokes the poetic expansiveness of classical Chinese literati landscape; upon closer inspection, however, the entire scene is meticulously constructed from pictographic elements such as “mountain,” “cloud,” “stone,” and “grass.” For Xu, language constitutes the most fundamental structure of human thought. Its transformation is, in essence, a reconfiguration of cognition itself. By returning written forms to their pictographic origins, the artist transcends cultural
boundaries, proposing a universally legible visual language.
Embedded within the work is a deeply personal dimension. Xu Bing inscribed in a reflective, almost diaristic tone: “The clouds are white… my memory is indistinct, yet the sketchbooks from thirty years ago remain vivid before my eyes… beans are drought-resistant, much like the people there.” This passage recalls his formative experiences during the “Down to the Countryside” movement, while also resonating with his Himalayan sketching project of 1999— both of which underscore a sustained dialogue between nature, memory, and cultural identity.
Xu Bing’s works are held in the permanent collections of major museums and institutions worldwide, underscoring his dual significance within both academic discourse and the international collecting sphere. In the Americas, his works are represented in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York (MoMA); The Metropolitan Museum of Art; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (MOCA); the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA); the Harvard Art Museums; the Princeton University Art Museum; and the Seattle Art Museum. In Europe, his works are held by the British Museum, London, and Museum Ludwig, Cologne. In Asia and Australia, his works are included in the collections of the National Art Museum of China, Beijing; the Fukuoka Asian Art Museum; the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney; and the Queensland Art Gallery.

Fernando Botero is one of the most renowned and visually distinctive Latin American artists on the international stage. He is celebrated for his unique style, “Boterismo,” in which both his paintings and sculptures are defined by simplified, flowing lines and softly rounded forms.
In his early years, Botero was deeply influenced by the long tradition of European fine art, particularly the Renaissance and Baroque periods. By integrating classical elements with the colonial heritage of Latin America, he developed a singular artistic language.
In Woman in Bed on Her Stomach, the artist employs the figure’s full, voluminous form to celebrate the innate vitality and generative power of femininity. The composition conveys a sense of calm, confidence, and elegance, while the subject’s gentle gaze reveals an inner quality that embodies truth, goodness, and beauty. Through this work, Botero evokes the warmth, richness, and luminous abundance associated with the land of South America.

Ju Ming began his career apprenticing in traditional temple carving, and later studied modern sculpture under Yang Ying-feng, completing a transformation from technical mastery to philosophical inquiry. His artistic practice is anchored by two major series: the “Taichi Series” and the “Living World Series.” The
former captures the dynamic vitality of movement through simplified, powerful forms, while the latter employs diverse materials such as wood, bronze, and stainless steel to depict the many facets of everyday life.
In the “Taichi Series,” Ju Ming reduces movement to its most essential abstract forms, using bold carving and chopping techniques to convey the force and spirit of martial exchange. This work from the series stands like a figure poised firmly between heaven and earth, reminiscent of a mountain—resolute yet imbued with a sense of calm balance. Unhurried and composed, it radiates a quiet strength. Despite its apparent simplicity, the form exudes a powerful, aweinspiring presence, animated with a lifelike spirit, as if ready to engage the viewer in dialogue at any moment.

Li Chen’s sculptures are distinguished by their refined, warm surface texture. Working primarily in bronze, he employs traditional Chinese techniques such as lacquer in a deep ink-black finish, along with gilding and silvering. His works convey a sense of lightness and spiritual ease, creating a striking paradox of being “both heavy and light.”

Completed in 2000, Cloud Glider draws on a line from Zhuangzi’s Free and Easy Wandering: “Riding the qi of clouds, mounting a flying dragon, and roaming beyond the four seas.” The piece expresses the artist’s spiritual aspirations—the figure soars through clouds, filled with joy, while embodying the Daoist philosophy of qi and energy. It offers a masterful interpretation of the uniquely Eastern concepts of essence, vitality, and spirit.
Li Chen’s reinterpretation of Buddhist figures reveals an aesthetic of purity and effortless non-action. Though serene, austere, and unadorned, his works are nonetheless imbued with an overwhelming, irrepressible force of energy that seems impossible to resist.
