Milton Jeron was born in Nicosia,
Cyprus. When he was two years old, his parents moved to Brazil,
where studied and gradudated in electronic engineering. Most of
his art studies were held at the MAM (Modern Art Museum), ABRA
(Brazilian School of Art), St. Martin School in London and at
the Art Students League in NY. A few years back, he started also
intensifying his artistic production under the guidance of
masters such as Elias Murad, Tuneu, Peticov and Fingermann.
His paintings in Oil and Acrylic reveal a colorful tropical
richness, where insistent geometric forms stand out among
abstract and figurative images. Obsessively a painter of forms
diluted in bright and hidden lights, shadowy forms, defined by
bright colors that break the serenity of the painting. In some
of his paintings there are moments when Jeron lets the abstract
impressionism dominate. In others, geometric forms determine the
composition. It is the time of sensitive, poetic and lyric
geometry. When Jeron said that: “painting is reflection. My
reflection is movement”, his word echoed Klee’s.
Working as volunteer in community projects for many years, Jeron
defends the contribution of artists that aims at the solution of
social Brazilian problems. Jeron has been developing artistic
activities with children that are assisted and aided by the
Division of Educational and Rehabilitation of Communication
Disturbances of PUC-SP DERDIC. This work has been carried out in
a joint procedure with professors and entity directors. It aims
at stimulating expression in deaf children through plastic art
instruments and visual art in general. In 2004 Jeron developed
the project “Mosaics-Kroma Synergy." The work of the children
from DERDIC was to elaborate a re-reading procedure of 10 works
of this series of the artist's creations, simplifying the forms
and ranges of colors in such a way to permit the elaboration of
mosaics derived from the artist's works. Ten (10) mosaics were
elaborated in sizes 70cm x 70cm that were applied on the
concrete coverings of the tables used in the commons of the
Catholic University of Săo Paulo (PUC SP). |
