The Man who Bears the Cross

 

Contemporary art inspires people to think, to engage in a dialogue. This is also apparent in the Man who Bears the Cross by the Antwerp artist Jan Fabre.

 

Why is this bronze self-portrait of the artist balancing such a gigantic cross on his hand?

Why did he use this shiny material?

How does this space add another level of meaning to this artwork?

 

Let this sculpture move you.

And you will undoubtedly also have something to say about this.
