In this ninth volume of the Conversaciones series, writer, curator and art historian Ariel Jim nez engages Caldas in a lively dialogue covering more than five decades of artistic production, exploring the connections between perception and history, and the way in which artist, viewer, context and history all play roles in how art is seen and experienced. Combining a formal intelligence, eclectic materials and provocative games, Caldas' works raise subtle questions about the unique nature of art and its place in a world of redundancy.
