The Phillips Collection Center for the Study of Modern Art's 2007-2008 Conversations with Artists series focuses on artistic partnerships, featuring artists who work together in collaborative practice. Ilya and Emilia Kabakov are Russian installation artists based in New York. Ilya, a leader of the Russian art movement known as Moscow Conceptualism, has been making installation art since 1984 and is one of the medium's most important practitioners and theoreticians. In 1989, he and Emilia began working together, with Emilia acting as translator, organizer, and originator of critical ideas.
