AGITATIONISM, the 36th edition of EVA International, will simulate the struggle between the tides that pull the present towards romanticisations, Utopias, ideologies, and nostalgias; and the tides that attempt to push it beyond those limitations and towards an unknown, a desire for something that remains too complex to determine today.

EVA 2014 features works by 56 international artists, selected from over 2,000 proposals by artists in 96 countries, including new commissions by: Doa Aly, Kjersti Andvig, Martí Anson, Ann Böttcher, +billion- (James Merrigan), GRRRR (Ingo Giezendanner), Rana Hamadeh, David Horvitz, Luis Jacob, Mona Marzouk, Asier Mendizabal, Metahaven, Nástio Mosquito, Seamus Nolan, Mark O’Kelly, Garrett Phelan, Ann-Sofi Sidén, Praneet Soi, Paul Tarpey, Humberto Vélez.
