The painter Eva Bei was born in Livadeia in 1944. Shortly after her birth, her family settled in Athens, where she lives and works to this day.
She graduated from the Moraitis School. She studied decorative arts at the Vakalo School under P. Tetsis (1961–1964), painting and book art at the Kendall College of Art and Design in Michigan (1965–1967), and immediately after, painting at the Athens Supreme School of Fine Arts under G. Moralis.
Her work moves primarily within the realm of abstraction, while she has also engaged with landscape painting, through which she frequently expresses ecological concerns.
She also worked as an illustrator for newspapers and magazines (such as To Vima, Eikones, and Syllogi) and published books, including the chronicle “With Nikos Karouzos—A Diary” (2021). She has taught painting to both children and adults.
She has presented her work in twelve solo exhibitions in Greece and Cyprus and has participated in numerous group exhibitions in Athens (e.g., Panhellenic Exhibitions 1975, 1987) and Thessaloniki.
Her works are held by the National Bank of Greece Cultural Foundation (MIET).
