Jean Milo
Jean Milo, real name Emile van Gindertael, is a Belgian writer, painter and gallery owner.
The artist's work reflects his evolution from refined impressionism to pure abstraction. Influenced by French Cubism, Milo simplified forms in still lifes and interiors, but continued to paint dynamic Impressionist interiors and cityscapes. Jean Milo was director of the Belgian gallery Le Centaure, and in 1952 he helped found the group Art abstrait.
