Pionnier de l’abstraction géométrique au Québec, Jean-Paul Jérôme est cofondateur du mouvement historique des Plasticiens aux côtés de Jauran (Rodolphe de Repentigny), Louis Belzile et Fernand Toupin. En 2019-2020, le Musée d’art contemporain de Baie-Saint-Paul a organisé une importante rétrospective sur le travail de l’artiste, en revenant sur 50 années d’expérimentations formelles.
Peinte en 1995, Village des monts est une œuvre de maturité. Sa composition géométrique en aplat de couleurs vives est représentative de l’intégration et l’achèvement des principes esthétiques du groupe des Plasticiens.
