​Francis Alÿs . Relato de Una Negociacion

Francis Alÿs is a Belgian artist living in Mexico since 1986.  He is deeply involved in political and social aspects and particularly in the thematics of development, frontiers and migrations. His multimedia work includes video, painting, postcards, slideshows, installations, performatic interventions, documentary films, sculpture.
 
« Relato de Una Negociacion » is an international exhibition organized by the Museo Tamayo in Mexico and showing now at the Museo de Arte Latino americano de Buenos Aires.

The exhibition presents three of the artist’s projects: Tornado (2000–2010), Don’t cross the bridge before you get to the river (2008), and Reel – Unreel (2011).
 
In these three series produced over nearly a decade, you will see a beautiful installation of  machine gun feeded by film tapes, a reflection about the power of media :

Another installation shows funny-tragic flip-flops transformed into small embarcations .
​Some symbolic work represents a « fooding bridge » between Africa and Europe.

A video also presents a performance held with young Africans seeming to cross the sea with the same would be flip-flop embarcations

We liked at most this exhibition which is a kind of « promenade » in the world’s hottest actuality seen from another point of vue, very personal, humain, artistic.
 
The Malba is easily accessible from our house La Onda.
 
Until February 16, 2016.
