In her work, Eva Kotátková mostly engages critically with concepts of upbringing and education – as she does in her annual editions for the Kunstverein Braunschweig.For the 22-part collage series „Work of nature“, Eva Kotátková draws on antiquated books on educational science and develops her collages from their largely black-and-white illustrations (drawn, glued or incised). In them, the ideas of bourgeois education are drastically exaggerated, recalling the aesthetics of Dadaist works.(Source: Kunstverein Braunschweig)
About the Artist Eva Kotátková
The sculptor, installation and performance artist Eva Koťátková (b. 1982 in Prague) explores the social, institutional and bodily structures of everyday life — the rules and constraints that shape how we think, learn, move and behave. In expansive installations the human body appears as an envelope, a lattice, at times a prison; hierarchies, dependencies and their psychological effects lie at the centre of her work. Koťátková studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague, at the city's Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design, and at the San Francisco Art Institute. Her installation "Asylum" was shown at the 2013 Venice Biennale, and her work has appeared at the New Museum in New York, among others. She lives and works in Prague.
