Original Abstract Collage Painting by Daniel Teis, 1983

Daniel K. Teis (American, 1925-2002)

A young veteran in WWII, Dan Teis moved to Mexico to study art at the Escuela de Pintura y Escultura. He would go on to earn a doctorate in Arts Administration from NYU. He served as Dean of the Arkansas Art Center, and later as Chair of the Fine Arts Department at the University of Delaware.

His technique, acrylic and paper collage on canvas, achieves complex textures and subtle color variation, moving from bold colors and geometric shapes, to softly muted abstractions.

Dan Teis has a one-person show at the Delaware Art Museum in 1974, his work was the first contemporary art to be accepted and critically acclaimed in the state. He exhibited widely in the U.S. and his work is represented in numerous public and private collections. Public collections include the Delaware Art Museum in Wilmington, the Brooklyn Museum of Art in New York, the Nelson Gallery-Atkins Museum in Kansas City, the New Jersey Art Museum in Trenton, N.J.
