Jan Fabre — Chapter XIV
Jan Fabre

Chapter XIV

A monumental bronze sculpture by Belgian artist Jan Fabre, *Chapter XIV* presents the human form with Fabre's characteristic blend of raw vulnerability and philosophical depth. The weighty, tactile qualities of the cast bronze are grounded by a stone base, anchoring the work between the earthly and the transcendent. Rooted in Fabre's ongoing exploration of the body, transformation, and the boundaries between life and death, the piece reflects his enduring engagement with themes of metamorphosis and human endurance.
