Alexis Arts, aka Danilo Audiello (Born in Foggia, Italy, 5 May 1986),
is an Italian illusionist, actor, dancer, and creative director in the
theatre world. He is currently the fastest escapologist in the world.
His shows mix artistic illusionism with mentalism and other
disciplines such as dance, transformation (quick-change), mime,
theatre, Chinese shadow artistry, and martial arts. As such he could
be defined not only as a magician, but as an all round entertainer
trained in numerous fields. His passion is to combine these skills in
order to create different atmospheres and characters that tell moving,
unexpected storiesâ€"stories which make audiences question their
perceptions of reality. As such Arts refers to himself as a
"fantasist"â€"dedicated to building surreal spectacles and stories
that both move and perplex the viewer.One of his most notable
achievements to date, is that he has broken 6 Guinness World Records.
These are for the fastest escape from a pair of handcuffs, fastest
escape from a straitjacket, the Largest Card Illusion Reveal. and the
Largest Mentalist Mnemonics Book Test.Alexis won the award of the
European Championship of Magic, FISM 2014 in the category of Big Stage
Illusions with his Prison Break act. His latest achievement was the
World Championship of Magic FISM 2015, in which the Prison Break act
was awarded as the best in the category of Big Stage Illusions
bringing the title to Italy again after 40 years.Arts was born into a
family with a strongly artistic and theatrical background. His father
was an illusionist and engineer, from whom Arts learnt many magical
skills from a young age. Off stage, Alexis was an exceptional achiever
at school, displaying a strong aptitude for mathematics â€" a skill
which has been a contributing factor in how he has able to invent his
original illusions and mind power stunts.
