Thursday 17th June - Curator led tour of Francis Alÿs Exhibition at Tate Modern. This is the Dutch born Mexico City based artist’s first major solo show in the UK and is bound to prove extremely popular.
“Alÿs’s work starts with a simple action, either by him or others, which is then documented in a range of media. Alÿs explores subjects such as modernising programmes in Latin America and border zones in areas of conflict, often asking about the relevance of poetic acts in politicised situations. He has used video projection and film but also spreads his ideas through postcards. Painting and drawing remain central to his work too.”
