Biography

Painter and printmaker Dean Brown completed a Bachelor of fine arts with honours at the National Art School. His work explores themes of individuality and alienation by depicting commuting urban figures removed from their larger group context. Brown’s work has been included in group exhibitions in Sydney, Melbourne, Alice Springs, Fremantle, the Gold Coast and internationally in Korea. He was awarded the Storrier Onslow National Art School Paris Studio Residency at Cité International des Arts, Paris in 2011. (Bio from: http://australiangalleries.com.au/artists/dean-brown/)
