Allen Wynn’s archetypal sculptures call up personal associations from all who see them. These figures may represent any kind of person, anywhere in the world, because the artist has freed them from extraneous detail and has stated their meaning in the simplest terms. Wynn has taken his impressions from earliest childhood memories through very recent experience and has interpreted them in a universal language.
Allen Wynn’s tough, graceful sculptures represent the inner beings of working people that he has known throughout his life. They are usually women, sometimes accompanied by a child whose role is that of a clear-eyed observer. Occasionally he will add a bird or a fish, not as an overt symbol but as a simple evocation of rural existence. The figures are reserved yet accessible, their train of thought reinforced by gestures as simple as the turn of a head or the position of an arm. Their emotions are contained within themselves.
Wynn was born on August 1, 1951 on a rural working farm.  “It was way out, away from anything, with vast corn fields and cattle land.  I had no friends, there were no children around, so all of my playmates were farm animals.  The women in my work are inspired from the working women on the area farms and our farm, of course.  I connect with the women in my work, they had a very strong influence in my childhood.”
Wynn is in worthy collections from coast to coast,  in Hawaii, Canada, Great Britian, Isreal; Blue cross & Blue Shield in New Orleans, Proctor & Gamble in Cincinnati are only a few of his many corporate collectors.
