  EVA PERSAKI (1948)

Born in Paris, Eva Persaki studied initially design with Panos Sarafianos, in Athens.  She continued her studies at the School of Fine Arts until 1972, first in painting with Yiorgos Mavroidis and then fresco and iconography with Constantinos Xynopoulos.  Subsequently, she moved to Paris, where she got lessons on etching with Stanley Hayter and design at the Academy Grande Chaumière.  Since 1978 she studied miniature art in India and Buddhist hagiography in Nepal with the painter Targe.  She had her first solo exhibition in Athens (1985).  Other solo and group shows followed both in Athens and abroad.  She is a founding member of the Pictorial Association of the Island of Syros.  With an abstract disposition and an expressionist technique, her work moves in the limits of fauvism.  She is the daughter of painter Jeanne Persaki.  She lives and works in Athens and the Island of Syros.
