Honoré d'o: Quarantine

A must-have for every art enthusiast: the artistic journey of Honor d'O

In Quarantine, Belgian artist Honor d'O takes you into the stillness of the Chihuahuan Desert in Marfa, Texas, where he spent the summer of 2024 in isolation, visualizing what a lasting context for an artistic state of mind could be. Amid the minimalist legacy of Donald Judd, a new perspective unfolded on space, time and meaning.

This book collects forty key works that strike a balance between observation and imagination, past and present, stillness and movement. It is a sensory journey through a landscape where emptiness speaks and the smallest details open up a whole new world.

Interweaving mythical stories, philosophical reflections, adventurous irony and critical playfulness, Honor d'O invites us to rethink the way we look at and give new meanings to what we see. To see how every moment, every form, every object and every impression can be a source of surprise with insight.

With contributions by Denis Gielen, Pierre-Jean Galdin, Bram Van Damme and Honor d'O.
