Francis Alÿs - The Last Clown | TateShots

Belgian artist Francis Alÿs talks about his work The Last Clown (1995-2000), an installation that comprises animation, drawings and paintings all depicting the same incident: a man tripping over a dog in a park.
Alÿs explains how this absurd, real life event can be read as a metaphor for the predicament of the artist.
