László Dús (born 14 July 1941, Zalaegerszeg) is an Americanized Hungarian-born visual artist. Dús is known for nonobjective Modernist prints.

Several of his prints are in the permanent collections of the U.S. National Gallery of Art.[1] Dús prints are also in the collections of the Renwick Gallery[2] and the Smithsonian American Art Museum.[3][2] Dús prints are also in the collection of the Utah Museum of Fine Arts. [4]

Typical subject matter is a blocky geometric color field composition with some shapes having "torn" edges. Large-size prints are scarce. Park West Gallery leader Albert Scaglione (also specializing in Pablo Picasso and Pierre-Auguste Renoir), was a major booster of the artist.
