Eva Kot’átková at Maccarone New York

Maccarone is pleased to present the first New York gallery exhibition of Prague-based artist Eva Kot’átková, a mouse’s home is the snake’s body.

Kot’átková has been making collage, performance, film, sculpture, and multimedia installations for the last ten years — often synthesizing several of these media together at once.  Born in Prague in 1982, Kot’átková was a young girl during the fall of the Communist Party in her country. Thus, her practice has long dealt with institutional contexts, ideologies, and codes, responding to the possibilities and impossibilities of personal space and the physical limits imposed by the rules associated with such frameworks.
