Artist
Francis Alÿs is a Belgian artist based in Mexico. In his 2002 project When Faith Moves Mountains he assembled 500 people in Lima, Peru, where they moved a giant sand dune 4 inches using only shovels.
Combining humour, sensitivity and an extremely personal connection to the people and places where he works, Francis Alys often employs basic human activities, such as walking, to create performances, photo documentation, videos, slide projections and paintings.
A very independent artist belonging to no particular group, Alys' is a unique and truly international voice in today's global art world.
