Biography
Stanley de Teliga is an Australian painter best known for his bright abstracted landscapes.
Stan de Teliga was an artist, teacher and administrator influential in the Sydney arts scene throughout the 's, 70's and 80's.
His quasi-cubist non-objective landscapes viewed his surroundings as multiple patches of colour where colour created the form.
De Teliga immigrated from Poland in 1926 with his parents. In 1951, after completing war service he studied at Sydney’s National Art School and tutored in art at the University of Sydney from 1954- 1961, before moving to Hobart to become the keeper of the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery.
