"This painting by Michel Moreno was entrusted to me by a private collector. In my opinion, it is a magnificent example of a Syntho-Chromist composition through the balance of geometric forms combined with the search for light through painting."
 Stephanie Peyrissac
 Michel Moreno, born in 1945, developed early talents for painting.
 Of Norman descent on his mother's side and Spanish on his father's, Michel Moreno studied at the Art et Technique school in Paris.
 He began his work with a series of canvases depicting gaunt, slender figures that he later called his "Miserabilist Expressionist" period. He continued his research by exploring the fields of color and light. Finally, in a manifesto published in 1976, the artist defined what he called Syntho Chromism.
 His passion for New Orleans jazz sometimes punctuates his work.
 His works are featured in Chinese, Canadian, American, German, English and Swiss collections, in particular in the collection of Mr Oscar Ghez, founder of the Musée Le Petit Palais in Geneva, and of course in French collections.
 The Syntho-Chromism Manifesto
 "The goal is to reach the point where light is created, where colors are born and will merge to become light. It is about painting from color to color, always maintaining the same intensity. Let the colors and shapes intermingle! What matters now is nothing other than expressing the effervescence of life, that is to say, light through things."
