David Teplica will give an artist's lecture entitled, "Social Surgery and Genetic Pleasures," exploring his newest book Intimate Decade - a diverse exploration of human contact from birth to death and the accompanying exhibit at Tinney Contemporary.

David Teplica has fused the two worlds of art and medicine. Whether manipulating human form in two dimensions photographically or changing anatomy in three dimensions surgically, he enjoys altering the way society sees the body. David Teplica is a photographer and plastic surgeon who lives and works in Chicago, Illinois. He maintains two active professional careers that often commingle. After completing medical school at Dartmouth, Teplica trained in Plastic Surgery at the University of Chicago. During the same seven-year Residency period, he received the Trustee's Scholarship for the full course of study at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and earned a Master of Fine Arts.

Today Teplica maintains a focused private practice in Chicago with patients from around the globe. He exhibits his creative work throughout the United States and Europe and lectures widely. As a member of the faculty, Teplica bases his teaching and research activities at the University of Chicago.
