"Die Bilder Jon Grooms überraschen: Zunächst sieht man flächige geometrische Formen, die in vielen Farbschichten aufgetragen wurden. Je nach Standpunkt und Lichteinfall verändern sich die Farben, und aus den Flächen ergeben sich Räume und Körper. Aus diesem Grund sieht sich Jon Groom auch eher als Bildhauer denn als Maler. Jon Groom, der Maler "wider Willen", ist ein Magier, der uns auf eine Reise in die Welt der Farbe mitnimmt. Betrac ..."

"The painter Marc Chagall (1887-1985) is perhaps best known for the surreal compositions and expressionistic colors he used to convey his memories of the Russian Jewish village atmosphere of his childhood. His imaginative visual vocabulary of circus performers, musicians, lovers, animals, flowers, and the ethereal atmospheric settings in which he places them evoke the mood of fairy tales. Chagall's playful use of scale and juxtaposition, ..."
