About Jean Paul Jerome

  • Biography from ByDealers

    Jean-Paul Jérôme co-signed, alongside Jauran, Louis Belzile, and Fernand Toupin, the Manifeste des Plasticiens in February 1955. The next year, he travelled to Paris, where he stayed until 1958. Back in Canada, Jérôme lived in Montreal and continued to paint until his death in 2004. Jérôme’s aesthetic influences came from early- 20th-century art currents such as Cubism, Futurism, Geometrical Abstraction, and the Russian avant-garde. However, his Parisian stay also had a major impact on his career. During that time, he met several artists from Galerie Denise René, then considered the leading gallery of the European avant-garde. Among them, Richard Mortensen and Auguste Herbin had an important influence on Jérôme throughout his career. Jean Paul Jerome lived from 1928 to 2006.
