Notes |
Dellas Henke spends most of his studio time drawing and making intaglio prints. His work explores the spaces we create between ourselves and others, whether those others are humans, animals, or our day-to-day environments. Henke's main inspiration stems from his childhood watching his grandfather paint after he got off work. Henke has a BS in Art from SUNY Brockport, where he studied under Robert Marx, and an MA and MFA from the University of Iowa, studying under Mauricio Lasansky. Born in Rochester, NY, Henke currently serves as a Professor of Printmaking at Grand Valley State University in Grand Rapids, MI. His works have been exhibited at the Grand Rapids Art Museum and the Detroit Institute of Art and featured in books by Samuel Beckett and Kafka. His works are included in the collections of Emory University, Library of Congress Pennell Collection, Lilly Library at Indiana University, National Gallery of Ireland, and Steelcase Inc. |
