Eva Rothschild

Eva Rothschild was born in Dublin in 1971, and lives and works in London. One of the leading sculptors of her generation, Rothschild’s work demonstrates a great awareness of the modernist tradition while maintaining its own distinctive sculptural language. Her works also engage with signifiers and objects from her surrounding urban environment, and the eternal forms of geometry and classicism.
