Jan Fabre: Ecstasy & Oracles

07-07-2018 - 04-11-2018


Cattedrale di Monreale, Palermo, Sicily, IT

Jan Fabre presents ‘Ecstasy and Oracles’ on the occasion of Manifesta12 organised by Mondo Mostre, in Palermo, the Italian Capital of Culture 2018. The scarab, ancient symbol of metamorphosis and an early alter-ego of artist Jan Fabre is a central element of the exhibition. Small bronzes refer to the vital quest of the artist while the life-size bronze sculpture ‘The man who bears the cross’ balances the limits of faith. A cycle of large mosaics made with jewel beetle wing-cases explores the eternal cycle of life and death, reoccurring in Vanitas vanitatum, omnia vanitas.
Curated by Joanna De Vos and Melania Rossi.
Monday to Saturday, 9.00 - 19.00, Holidays, 9.00 - 13.30
