Joseph Plavcan was an American painter and teacher from Erie, PA

Joseph Plavcan was an American painter and teacher from Erie, Pennsylvania. Throughout his career Plavcan was continually committed to color, though his work itself ranges from the realistic to the highly stylized. With the development of acrylic paints in the 1960s, Plavcan turned away from his earlier representational style and began experimenting with a hard-edged geometric style.
