RESUME - MILTON JERON

Milton Jeronimides, Jeron, was born in Nicosia, Cyprus. When he was two years old, his parents moved to Rio de Janeiro - Brazil, where he studied. He graduated as an Electronics Engineer from PUC-RJ (Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro) and after that he obtained his Master Degree of Computer Science from the Manhattan College of NY. In 94 he moved to Såo Paulo.

A few years back, he started intensifying his artistic production under the guidance of masters such as Elias Murad, Tuneu, Peticov and Fingerman. Most of his studies were held at the MAM (Modern Art Museum) and ABRA. In 2002 he deepened his technical research at the St. Martin School in London and at the Art Students League in NY.

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.

Working as volunteer in community projects for many years, Jeron defends the contribution of artists that aims at the solution of social Brazilian problems.

Since 2002, 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 (http://www.derdic.pucsp.br/). 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 São Paulo (PUC SP).
