A visual artist and theatrical writer, Jan Fabre presents for the first time at MAXXI the actions and performances from the 1970s through to the present day: drawings, “thinking models”, collages, films, photos and documents that constitute the basis for a review of the dozens of performances and actions, both private and public, realised in Belgium and elsewhere.
In collaboration with Romaeuropa Festival 2013
