In Stephan Vanfleteren. Transcripts of a Sea<\/em>, the renowned Belgian photographer offers a glimpse into his long-standing fascination with the sea. His photographs are placed in dialogue with works spanning five centuries of maritime art. A particular highlight is Seascape, Seen from Mariakerke<\/em>\u00a0by L\u00e9on Spilliaert, a loan from The Phoebus Foundation collection. In this work, Spilliaert captures the sea not as a soothing panorama, but as an almost infinite, mysterious expanse that holds as much foreboding as it does beauty.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
