| General info : | | Jan Fabre (born 14 December 1958 in Antwerp, Belgium) is a versatile Belgian artist known for his contributions to theater, literature, and visual arts.
With a career spanning nearly four decades, Fabre has established himself as an influential figure in the artistic landscape.
Jan Fabre often refers to the concept of "consilience" – the unity of knowledge – a concept that was elaborated by William Whewell (1794–1866) and further developed by the American entomologist, biologist and philosopher Edward O. Wilson (1929–2021) in his book 1998 Consilience: The Unity of Knowledge.
Fabre describes himself as a consilience artist, explaining: "It’s a merging of elements from different disciplines guided by fact-based theory and practice across disciplines. An understanding of entomology can, for example, lead to new interpretations within the visual arts. | |
