He later taught at Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia, from 1977 to 1996. As a teacher at PAFA, he served as mentor to Giovanni Casadei, Robert Dye, and others. His paintings have also been auctioned at Christie's, New York. In 2010, the Lancaster Museum of Art held a posthumous exhibition of his works. His paintings have been cataloged by the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
Among the awards he received were a 1955 Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation Grant, the 1960 Altman Landscape Prize from the National Academy of Design (NAD), and a 1960 Hallmark Purchase Award from Hallmark Cards. The NAD elected Remenick an associate member in 1980, and an academician in 1982.
