DON WYNN [1945 - ]
The representational painter Don Wynn has had a long and diverse exhibition history, starting in 1964 with his first New York City solo show. Often allusive and autobiographical, his work is an amalgamation of traditional and contemporary approaches, with emphasis on highly articulated surface textures. Many of the intriguing images in these paintings derive from memory and imagination, which results in an inventive use of natural form and a blending of allegory with experience.
Mr. Wynn's work first received international recognition in the Whitney Museum's landmark Twenty-Two Realists exhibition in 1970. In 1995, the Metropolitan Museum of Art acquired a Wynn oil for their Twentieth Century Collection. He has been reviewed in the New York Times, Art News, Arts, the New Yorker, Art International and many other publications and is included in all major fine arts reference volumes in the USA and abroad, including Who's Who in American Art.For a complete career summary, go to the Artist Resumé link above or contact the artist.
