Listen "Eva Lake"
Episode Synopsis
Eva Lake studied art history and archaeology at the University of Oregon and painting at the Art Students League of New York. She has exhibited internationally since 1980. As a singer in post punk bands she recorded with Trap Records in the Pacific Northwest. Her day job was in makeup, beauty and fashion and this, plus her studies in art history, have formed the foundation and subject matter for much of her work. For over a dozen years she interviewed other art people on the radio, specifically KPSU and KBOO, and has written about art for various publications including Art Week, Visual Art Source, Preview and the Bay Area Guardian. Lake also curated exhibitions and worked at artist-run and commercial galleries including Lovelake, Chambers Fine Art, Portland Arts Collective and the Russo Lee Gallery. Born in Los Angeles, she then grew up on a dirt road in southern Oregon. Lake currently lives and works in Portland, Oregon and is represented by Frosch and Co in New York City and Modernism in San Francisco.
