Sirens

Eva Foundation's inaugural exhibition, Sirens, frames Feminism as both an approach to art making, as well as a critical lens through which artwork is comprehended. Presenting disparate and varied approaches to artistic process, some grounded in activism, others shaped by autobiographical histories and cultural traditions, the artists selected subvert first impressions. Visually alluring objects reveal heavily charged discourses.

  • Judy Chicago
  • Helen Frankenthaler

The scene captures a refined gallery interior featuring black-and-white checkered marble flooring leading into darker wood parquet rooms.
This interior composition shows a monumental black assemblage wall sculpture, likely constructed from found wooden forms — drawers, beams, tools, and architectural fragments — arranged into a relief recalling Louise Nevelson’s style
A stylized, upright female form — carved wood with a heavily textured, charred or earthen surface at the head and lower half, and painted in soft pink hues across the torso.

Situated in the heart of Bucharest, within a renovated 1930s townhouse, EVA Foundation is a dynamic art space housing a transnational collection of 20th and 21st century art created by women. Throughout the building, rooms furnished by leading global designers invite visitors to pause and reflect, fostering a meditative atmosphere of true engagement with each artwork and the collection as a whole.

ABOUT THE COLLECTION

EVA Foundation’s collection is a celebration of women artists and their indelible mark on art history. By pairing the work of an emerging generation of vanguard female artists in dialogue with works by celebrated icons including Judy Chicago and Alice Neel, EVA Foundation’s collection sketches a web of disparate influences to offer a lineage of often subversive, always forward-thinking artistic legacy.

EVA Foundation believes that art is a living thing. Placing the collection within a domestic space is an embrace of subjectivity, allowing art and the space it inhabits to be in direct dialogue with each other. The renovation of the townhouse itself was directly informed by the collection that would inhabit it; a sense of deep engagement with each art object is at the forefront of all facets of EVA Foundation’s work.
