Eve Drewelowe (1899–1988) was an American painter. Her career spanned six decades and produced more than 1,000 works of art in oil, watercolor, pen and ink and other media in styles that included impressionism, social realism and abstraction. Eve Drewelowe was born in New Hampton, Iowa on April 15, 1899. She graduated from New Hampton High School in 1919.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://collguides.lib.uiowa.edu/?IWA0135 )〕 She attended the University of Iowa School of Art and Art History, receiving a bachelor's degree in graphic and plastic arts in 1923. She encouraged the university to establish a graduate program in the arts and became the first student to earn a masters degree in studio arts from the university in 1924. Following her marriage to Jacob Van Ek, a political scientist, in 1923, the couple moved to Boulder, Colorado where he taught at the University of Colorado, Boulder. Drewelowe became a founding member and president of the Boulder Arts Guild in the city. She taught art at the university in 1927-1928 and 1936-1937. Drewelowe was influenced by her father, George Drewelow, a farmer and environmentalist. This and her love of Western landscapes had a strong impact on the subject matter of work.〔 Her personal life exhibited feminist themes: the artist retained her maiden name and publicly stated a disinterest in housework and parenting. Drewelowe exhibited under the name Eve Drewelowe Van Ek until the early 1950s, when she resumed using her maiden name. Her work was shown at National Association of Women Artists exhibitions, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Denver Art Museum, the National Museum of Women in the Arts and numerous other institutions. Drewelowe reinvented her art throughout her life and her work reflects various styles that emerged in the twentieth century. Her works encompassed impressionism, social realism and abstraction.〔 Upon her death in Boulder, Colorado, on October 22, 1988, Drewelowe's collection of personal papers and artworks was donated to the University of Iowa School of Art and Art History. Undergraduate scholarships in art are named in her honor at both the University of Colorado and the University of Iowa. In 1979 she was named as a University of Iowa Distinguished Alumni. The Eve Drewelowe Gallery in the University of Iowa's Studio Arts Building is named for her.〔 ==Notes== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eve Drewelowe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
