Lee Mingwei: Rituals of Care
February 17-July 7, 2024
First Major US Exhibition of a Leading Taiwanese American Artist Lee Mingwei
Singers, Tailors, Painters Invited into the Galleries to Engage Visitors in Art-Making as Healing Practice
The Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco today announced leading Taiwanese American artist Lee Mingwei's first survey exhibition in the United States. Lee Mingwei: Rituals of Care features seven projects made between 1995 and 2024 that place visitors at the center of radical acts of generosity and care, asking how art can be a conduit for social connection and healing. Inspired by personal experiences of loss and resilience and major world events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, artist Lee Mingwei (b. 1964) has, over the course of his career, created powerful participatory mixed-media installations and performances that transform ordinary gestures like writing, sweeping, mending, or breathing into rituals of engagement and solace.
