Published to accompany the largest and most important retrospective exhibition yet staged of Alÿs’ work, this is not a conventional monograph, but, in the spirit of Alÿs’ wandering practice, more closely resembles a guidebook than an exhibition catalogue.

Mark Godfrey is a Curator at Tate Modern.Klaus Biesenbach is chief curator of New York’s P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center. He is the founder and director of Kunst-Werke, a contemporary arts complex in Berlin.
