This contemporary classical painter of the human figure first studied at the Tyler School of Art at Temple University in Philadelphia and, subsequently, at Cooper Union in New York City, where he received his BFA in 1966. In 1968, he earned his MFA from Yale University. Over the course of a distinguished career, Alan Feltus has been the recipient of numerous prizes, medals and juried awards including the Prix de Rome for study at the American Academy in Rome, 1970 to 1972; a Tiffany Foundation Grant in 1980; a grant from the National Foundation for the Arts in 1981; and, in 1982, a Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant. The artist's work is held in private and public collections world-wide including the permanent collections of the National Academy of Design in New York, the Corcoran Gallery of Art, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, the Smithsonian Art Museum in Washington, D.C. and the Huntington Museum of Art, among others.
