Limerick | EVA International 2016

None EVA_2016_Still_the_Barbarians_1 EVA International – Ireland’s biennial of contemporary art, opened in Limerick on 16 April and runs till 17 July 2016. Entitled Still (the) Barbarians, it features 57 international artists, selected through an open and invited call for proposals. Still (the) Barbarians is curated by Koyo Kouoh, the founding artistic director of RAW Material Company, Dakar and the curator of 1:54 Contemporary African Art Fair in London and New York. Artists’ projects and exhibitions will take place at Limerick City Gallery of Art, Cleeve’s Condensed Milk Factory and various locations across Limerick. EVA International 2016 will take place alongside the 1916 Easter Rising centenary celebrations; and responding to this context, Still (the) Barbarians will investigate the post-colonial condition of Ireland as a point of departure from where artistic reflections, critical redefinitions and political transformations will be articulated.
