Jon Marten was educated at the St. Joost in Breda and the Eyck Academy in Maastricht.
After Jon Marten finished his education, he mainly carried out stained glass commissions until 1960. He then stopped accepting commissions and moved to Amsterdam where he settled.
In the eighties Jon Marten was part of the 'IJmuider Kring', with artists such as Jaap Mooij, Theo Kuypers, Gérard van den Eerenbeemt, Pieter Defesche and Lei Molin. The landscape is a great source of inspiration for Jon Marten's work. Marten's work represents another world, another reality.
Jon himself describes his work as a violent attack on unknown forces in nature. 'Fragments'. Marten says: 'I try to let these inner fragments go their own way as much as possible. It sends me to one of the slides that are stored in me while I'm working. That's more or less how it goes. Jon Marten works a lot in the Dominican Republic, and has regular exhibitions in the Caribbean.
