Dušan Kadlec (21 december 1942 - 12 september 2018) was a Czech-Canadian painter, born in Humpolec, Czechoslovakia (now Czech Republic). He pursued his interest in art from a very early age, ultimately studying at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague where he received a master's degree in 1967. His training focused on traditional painting techniques but also explored aspects of sculpture, jewellery design, art restoration, and architecture. While a student at the academy, he specialized in figurative painting and portraiture.
Upon graduation Kadlec began to exhibit and receive both private and state commissions. After completing his Masters, he was fortunate to be able to make a living as an artist in his homeland. Most of his early works were commercial art projects but he also contributed to a number of exhibitions, and was invited to participate in the design of Man and His World, the Czech pavilion at the 1967 World Expo in Montreal.
Kadlek worked in Amsterdam for several years between 2000 and 2008 and painted Amsterdam as it was in a 17th century style. He lived in several Amstardam hotel at the time.
