D53 Before Conversation Fig.267 by Jan De Cock, created in 2006, is a tapestry that presents a detailed, architectural abstraction rendered in black and green lines against a light background. The composition showcases intersecting grids and layered geometric forms, evoking the structural complexity of modernist architecture. The scattered green accents break the monochrome scheme, drawing attention to specific points within the intricate framework. This piece reflects De Cock’s interest in spatial relationships and the aesthetics of construction, inviting viewers to consider how architecture and design intersect with visual art. The tapestry’s precise, technical lines lend a sense of order and rhythm, while its abstracted architectural elements suggest a deconstructed, introspective view of built environments.

Jan De Cock (Belgium, 1976) is a contemporary visual artist known for his large-scale, site-specific installations that explore the relationship between art, architecture, and space. His work often references modernist aesthetics and challenges traditional notions of sculpture. De Cock founded The Brussels Art_ Institute, a multidisciplinary workspace fostering collaboration between artists and educational institutions.

To me, Modernism is the most important period in art history.
- Jan De Cock

As a visual artist, Jan De Cock creates installations where the creation itself is part of the exhibition. Many of his works include performance and feature his own photography. He uses 20th century abstract art techniques to explore the effects of modern design and mass production on the world of art. A number of his works use the word Denkmal in the title, which means “monument” in German. However in his native language of Dutch, Denkmal has a different meaning: denk “to think” and mal “to mold”. Therefore his works are said to spark different ways to think and look at his subjects instead of having a singular meaning. Jan De Cock is considered a modernist artist, and his works explore the ways an artist can relate to the modernist approach. He lives and works in Belgium where he is only the second Belgian artist to present an exhibition at the Tate Modern in London. (Artist website)
