What to expect

It is a paradox that Marquet belongs more to the past and future than to the present. His art awaits the silence that is yet to fall. He nevertheless teaches us to appreciate the riches of meditation, directing us to that exalted place of peace so central to his vision. This book traces his artistic journey, from his early training in Paris to his travels abroad, highlighting his unique approach to light, atmosphere, and form. Through his restrained yet expressive style, Marquet offers a contemplative alternative to the bold intensity of his contemporaries.
