Jeremy Deller: It Is What It Is: Conversations About Iraq (New Museum of Contemporary Art, New York: Exhib. Catalogues)

As part of the 2009 Creative Time-presented project It Is What It Is, British artist Jeremy Deller (born 1966) encouraged the public to address the conflict in Iraq by inviting a revolving cast of participants to take up residence in New York's New Museum and discuss the war, later setting up at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago to record conversations and photograph each participant in the project.
