About the Artist
Dean Warren
Dean Warren holds an MFA in Sculpture from Stephen F. Austin University in Texas and is a former Crealde student. He has been exhibiting throughout the Southeast since the mid 1970s. His helmets are symbols of protection, a tribute to the timeless beauty and power of bronze. Dean views his subject matter and the material as a connection to the past. The helmets are cast bronze sculptures that incorporate found objects such as jewelry, buttons, antlers, bone, and hand-made forms.
