This third publication in the Fundación Cisneros' Conversaciones/Conversations series puts Brazilian conceptual artist Jac Leirner in dialogue with art historian Adele Nelson. Leirner (born 1961) emerged in the early 1990s at the forefront of a new, transnational generation of artists looking to the art of the 1960s and 1970s as a point of departure. Leirner's meticulously constructed works carve out a place for commonplace objects, from cigarette packs and plastic shopping bags to cutlery and currency. In this, the first in-depth study of Leirner's creative process, Nelson interviews the artist about more than two decades of production.

The book is clearly organized and thoughtful, divided into sections that describe different aspects of Leirner's work and draw the reader into discussion in easy stages. Art histroian Adele Nelson provides, often as part of her questions, valuable background information on the artist and her milieu for those of us not quite familiar with the trends of our continental neighbours.--Lilly Wei "ARTnews "
