A publication that revisits one of Antoni Miralda’s most emblematic projects, bringing its symbolic universe back to life through letters, essays and archival materials.

On the occasion of the 40th anniversary of Honeymoon Project, the artist Antoni Miralda presents the book Monuments in Love / Cartas de Amor, a publication that revisits one of the most distinctive projects of his artistic career.

Published by Terranova in collaboration with Galeria Senda and FoodCultura, the volume revisits the universe of Honeymoon Project, initiated in the 1980s. The project imagined a symbolic union between two iconic monuments: the Statue of Liberty in New York and the Columbus Monument in Barcelona. Through this fictional marriage, Miralda developed a playful yet critical reflection on social rituals, cultural exchange, and the role monuments play in shaping collective imaginaries.

The book brings together a selection of love letters sent from around the world, alongside contemporary essays and materials that expand the story of the project. These contributions allow readers to revisit Honeymoon Project from new perspectives while preserving its participatory spirit and its ability to connect diverse cultural narratives.

More than a simple documentation, Monuments in Love / Cartas de Amor functions as an extension of the project itself: an editorial space where archive, fiction and memory intertwine. Forty years after its inception, Miralda’s work continues to offer a playful and critical perspective on the ways societies imagine, celebrate and construct shared stories.

As part of this anniversary, the book was presented publicly on February 13 at Sala Apolo as part of the Art Meets Apolo programme, in an event that brought together contemporary art, performance and music.

Produced in a limited edition, Monuments in Love / Cartas de Amor invites readers to rediscover Miralda’s creative universe and to revisit one of the most imaginative projects in contemporary art.

The book is available in a limited edition through Galeria Senda.
