          This  Amendment  No. 6 to  Schedule  13D  relates  to shares of Common
Stock, with a Ps. 1 nominal (par) value (one Argentine peso) (the "Shares"),  of
IRSA Inversiones y  Representaciones  S.A. (the "Issuer").  This Amendment No. 6
supplementally  amends the Initial  Statement on Schedule 13D dated December 29,
1997  and  all  subsequent  amendments  thereto   (collectively,   the  "Initial
Statement") filed by the Reporting Persons. This Amendment No. 6 on Schedule 13D
is being filed by the Reporting Persons to report that as a result of the recent
transfer of Shares to current members of the Issuer's management,  the number of
Shares of which  certain of the Reporting  Persons may be deemed the  beneficial
owners has decreased by more than one percent of the total number of outstanding
Shares.  Capitalized  terms used but not defined  herein shall have the meanings
ascribed  to  them  in  the  Initial   Statement.   The  Initial   Statement  is
supplementally amended as follows.

Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

          (a)  (i) Geosor may be deemed the  beneficial  owner of the 23,059,098
Shares held for its account, which includes 2,241,888 GDSs (approximately 12.08%
of the total number of Shares outstanding).

               (ii)  Each of SFM LLC and Mr.  Druckenmiller  may be  deemed  the
beneficial owner of the 1,999,250 Shares held for the account of Quantum Realty,
which includes 199,925 GDSs,  (approximately 1.05% of the total number of Shares
outstanding).

               (iii) Mr. Soros may be deemed the beneficial  owner of 25,058,348
Shares  (approximately  13.13% of the total number of Shares outstanding).  This
number consists of: (A) the 23,059,098 Shares held for the account of Geosor and
(B) the 1,999,250 Shares held for the account of Quantum Realty.

          (b)  (i) Pursuant to the contract  between Quantum Realty and SFM LLC,
SFM LLC may be  deemed  to  have  the  sole  power  to  direct  the  voting  and
disposition of the 1,999,250 Shares held for the account of Quantum Realty.

               (ii) Pursuant to the contract  between Quantum Realty and SFM LLC
and as a result of the positions  held by Mr. Soros and Mr.  Druckenmiller  with
SFM LLC,  each of Mr. Soros and Mr.  Druckenmiller  may be deemed to have shared
power to direct the voting and disposition of the 1,999,250  Shares held for the
account of Quantum Realty.

               (iii) Each of Geosor and Mr. Soros (as the sole  shareholder  and
person  ultimately in control of Geosor) may be deemed to have the sole power to
direct the voting and disposition of the 23,059,098  Shares held for the account
of Geosor.

          (c)        Except for the sale by Quantum  Realty on July 21,  1999 of
4,772,730 Shares of the Issuer to current members of the Issuer's  management at
a price per share of $3.00 in a  privately  negotiated  transaction,  there have
been no  transactions  with  respect to the Shares  since May 24,  1999 (60 days
prior to the date hereof) by any of the Reporting Persons or Quantum Realty.

          (d)  (i)  The  shareholders  of  Quantum  Realty  have  the  right  to
participate in the receipt of dividends  from, or proceeds from the sale of, the
Shares held for the account of Quantum Realty in accordance with their ownership
interests in Quantum Realty.

               (ii) Mr. Soros, the sole shareholder of Geosor,  has the right to
participate in the receipt of dividends  from, or proceeds from the sale of, the
Shares held for the account of Geosor.

          (e)        Not applicable.

          The  information  set forth above  excludes  1,282,337  Shares  (which
assumes  conversion  of 2,500  GDSs) held for the  account  of  Quantum  Dolphin
Limited ("Quantum  Dolphin"),  an Isle of Man corporation.  Geosor,  certain SFM
clients and certain  Managing  Directors of SFM LLC are  shareholders of Quantum
Dolphin.  Gary  Gladstein  serves as a director  of Quantum  Dolphin  and of the
Issuer.  An  affiliate  of  SFM  LLC  (the  "Affiliate")  has  entered  into  an
arrangement with Consultores Asset Management, S.A. ("Consultores"), the manager
of Quantum Dolphin, whereby it provides non-discretionary consulting services to
Consultores.  Pursuant  to such  arrangement,  the  Affiliate  does not have the
authority to make any management or investment  decisions for Quantum Dolphin or
Consultores.  The  Reporting  Persons  understand  that  pursuant  to a separate
arrangement, Consultores may be deemed to have sole voting and dispositive power
with respect to Quantum Dolphin's investment in the Shares.

          Each of SFM LLC and Mr.  Druckenmiller  expressly disclaims beneficial
ownership  of any Shares not held for the  account  of  Quantum  Realty.  Geosor
expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of any Shares not held for its account.
Mr. Soros expressly  disclaims  beneficial  ownership of any Shares not held for
the accounts of Quantum Realty and/or Geosor.
