Liliana Porter in conversation with Inés Katzenstein

Liliana Porter in Conversation with/en conversación con Inés Katzenstein, the seventh book in the Conversations series, presents a captivating dialogue between Liliana Porter and Inés Katzenstein with an introductory essay by Gregory Volk. Porter describes with simplicity and humor the ways in which her work incorporates the real with the representational, often in hypothetical but compelling mini-dramas, using kitsch and mass-produced objects that provoke both our compassion and our laughter.

Liliana Porter, born in Buenos Aires in 1941, has exhibited internationally and is represented in numerous public and private collections. Using a wide range of media, including sculpture, printmaking, works on canvas, photography, video, and installation, Porter whimsically blends the absurd with the philosophical to create extraordinary portraits of everyday scenes and situations.
