Dennis Revitzky is a painter and printmaker who has been working as a professional artist since the mid-1970s, mostly in a representational style, specifically landscapes and figural subjects. His paintings often changed in style and technique early in his career, but since the late 1980s have consisted of representational imagery created with mixed-media and oils on canvas. As a printmaker, his main work has been the linocut, with earlier editions made in serigraphy and etching.
Revitzky was born in Titusville, Pennsylvania in 1947, and moved to the Rochester, New York area in 1970 to become an art educator and professional artist. He taught art in the New York public school system until 2002 when he retired from teaching.
Revitzky has been represented by several galleries, and has been a member of the Society of American Graphic Artists since 1991, and the Boston Printmakers since 2005. His art has been included in over 140 juried or invitational group exhibitions, winning several awards, and has had over 20 solo or small-group exhibitions, including at the Canton Museum of Art. His work is in many private, corporate, and institutional collections, including: the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Kansas City, MO., Memorial Art Gallery, Rochester, NY, Johnson Museum of Art, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, Georgetown University Print Collection, Washington, D.C., Library of Congress, Washington, D.C., and Syracuse University Art Galleries, Syracuse, NY.
