Jean Miotte Biography

Paris, France, 1926 -

He received a degree in Mathematics from the Ã?cole des Travaux Publics, in Paris.

Miotte says of his work: ?My painting is a projection, a succession of acute moments where creation occurs in the midst of spiritual tension as the result of inner conflicts. Painting is not a speculation of the mind or spirit; it?s a gesture from within.?
