MINIMAL + CONCEPTUAL WORKS
1978 - 1981


"Young accepted the importance of conceptualism's interrogation of art's discursive frameworks. Yet, minimalism's empirical basis and analytical processes attracted him more, reflecting his interest in the links between art, science and philosophy in solving problems. Young appreciated the clarity, humbleness and physicality of minimalism. It seemed to exemplify an ethical approach to art suggestive of the moral metaphysics of Chinese thought while coinciding in some ways with Chinese ideas of embodiment."
