Eva Kotátková
Born in Prague, 1982
Eva Kotatkova is a Czech artist whose work focuses on structures of social power and mechanisms of marginalization, creating spaces that give voice to the excluded, both human and non-human. In collaboration with many different groups and communities, she proposes imaginative scenarios for being together in more meaningful, inclusive, and empathic ways. She conceives her exhibitions as complex landscapes and collective, participative bodies, where multiple voices can be heard.
Her solo exhibitions have taken place at Nottingham Contemporary (2023); Arter (Istanbul, 2023); National Gallery Prague and CAPC Bordeaux (both 2022), Kunstverein Hamburg (2018); Pirelli Hangar Bicocca (Milan, 2018); Belvedere 21 (Vienna, 2017); and Centre d’art contemporain (Pougues-les-Eaux, 2016), among others. Furthermore, she has recently presented work at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (2018), the 16th Istanbul Biennale (2019), and documenta fifteen (2022).
