Abstract

A close look at the Mexico City-based artist's lyrical expansions of art into life. He employs a range of media - including painting, video, and other more unorthodox materials - in innovative takes on observation, participation and performance. Alÿs's work stems from his interest in the powers that shape urban existence, as well as the innovative schemes that ordinary individuals devise to subvert them. Alÿs invents his own fables, weaving them into the social fabric of such cities as Venice, London and Mexico City, his home for nearly 20 years. Alÿs's work has been included in the world's top international exhibitions, including the Venice Biennale (2001), the Carnegie International (2004) and the São Paulo Biennial (2004).

Abstract

The Belgian artist Francis Alÿs (b. Antwerp, 1959) makes work that is as multifaceted as it is poetically subversive. Straddling the line between performative conceptual art and community intervention, his films and drawings chart the political and social realities of urban spaces. One of his most imposing long-term projects is Children's Games, for which he documents children playing all over the world, from Paris and Mexico City to the Yezidi refugee camp Sharya in Iraq. The richly illustrated book contains ideas and sketches he compiled in preparation for this series. It lets us glimpse into the engine room of his artistic practice, revealing key elements of his filmic poetics. An essay by the ethnographer and filmmaker David MacDougall embeds Alÿs's observations of children's play in the contexts of childhood studies as well as the history of ethnographic documentary film. -- (publisher's description)

Abstract

A fully updated edition of the artist's first comprehensive monograph, more than a decade since its original publication. Francis Alÿs examines the patterns of various urban sites before weaving his own fables into their tangled social fabric with wit, sensitivity, and an acutely personal connection to his subject matter. A scene such as a Volkswagen Beetle struggling up a hill or a man pushing a block of ice can carry a message that resonates far beyond the work's simple parameters. As Alÿs puts it, 'Sometimes doing something poetic can become political, and sometimes doing something political can become poetic.'
