Theodore Hios (Greek-American 1910-1999)

During his six-decade painting career, the style of Theodore Hios occasionally turned abstract,* but he mostly hewed to expressive* portraits and especially visionary views of nature that were sometimes reminiscent of Marsden Hartley.  These landscapes often resembled the canyons and precipices around Tripi, the small Greek village where he was born in 1908.

In 1929, after becoming disenchanted with law studies, Mr. Hios followed his father and a brother to New York, where he scraped together a living working mostly in restaurants.  In 1934 he enrolled in a Works Progress Administration art class in a public school, and by 1937 was a working member of the W.P.A*.  As a member of the American Artists' Union,* he had his first public showing with that organization in 1936.

During World War II, Hios enlisted in the Marine Corps and was made a combat photographer, serving in the Pacific.    ...  [Displaying 1000 of 2758 characters.]  Artist bio
