The Fundacion Cisneros' Conversaciones/Conversations series is
dedicated to preserving firsthand testimonies of leading artists
and intellectuals from Latin America. Argentinian artist Liliana
Porter has lived and worked in New York since 1964; her work has
been exhibited internationally and is represented in many public
and private collections. Using a wide range of media--including
sculpture, printmaking, works on canvas, photography, video and
installation--Porter playfully mixes the absurd with the
philosophical to create extraordinary portrayals of everyday scenes
and plights. In this, the seventh volume of the Conversaciones
series, Porter is in dialogue with art historian and critic Ines
Katzenstein. She describes with simplicity and humor the ways in
which her work blends the real with the representational, often in
hypothetical yet convincing mini-dramas using mass-produced, kitsch
objects that elicit both our compassion and laughter."
