Fabre opens the world of imagination and let every viewer will face the questions and try to find his answers.<\/p>\n<p>It is not easy, but if art moves these sensations has already made half a miracle.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.beatricebrandini.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/31-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-18270\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beatricebrandini.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/31-1-300x240.jpg\" alt=\"31\" width=\"300\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beatricebrandini.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/31-1-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.beatricebrandini.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/31-1-768x615.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.beatricebrandini.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/31-1-1024x820.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.beatricebrandini.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/31-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jan Fabre: &#8220;Chapters Series I &#8211;
