Video art by Francis Alÿs, set to music in BRUSK
From kite flying in Afghanistan to rope skipping in Congo and shadow play in Nepal: Francis Alÿs’ videos show the universal power of children’s games across different cultures. With minimal resources, children create their own little worlds, often in politically and socially challenging environments. Discover Alÿs's masterpieces in a spatial arrangement with several video screens, to the sound of four new compositions played by an ensemble that move to the rhythm of the art.
