JACK GRON
Jack
Gron, currently the Chairman of the Art Department at the College of
Liberal Arts at Texas A & M, Corpus Christi, Texas, was raised in the Greater Ohio Valley where industry reined
supreme during the 50's, 60's, and 70's. His family all worked in
the various mills, plants and mines around Steubenville. This
combined with summers spent working on blast furnaces would later
influence his commitment to the exploration of ferrous and
non-ferrous metals for his sculpture. Having a keen interest in
current and world events, he uses satire and humor to express his
views artistically. "In a culture of rapidly changing
images, we have become visually jaded as a defense mechanism from
the constant barrage of the advertising of products, news etc. I
hope to offer through my work, symbols that may allow the viewer to
stop and ponder upon the memories, reflections and meanings of their
own personal lives that these compositions may stir or unlock."
