A major exploration of the work of one of the most important postwar abstract painters The first
retrospective in the U.S. to feature German artist Blinky Palermo (1943–1977) includes more than 60
works, most of which have never before been shown in North America. This beautifully illustrated volume
spans the breadth of Palermo’s brief but significant career and explores each phase, beginning with
objects and paintings created shortly after he graduated from Joseph Beuys’s class at the Düsseldorf
Art Academy in the early 1960s and culminating with paintings he produced during his last years in both
Germany and New York City.Palermo’s oeuvre is customarily divided into four principal groupings: the
Objects; the Cloth Pictures (Stoffbilder), the in situ Wall Paintings and Drawings, and the late Metal
Pictures, including the epic To the People of New York City (1976), now in the collection of Dia Art
Foundation. Blinky Palermo also addresses the artist’s works on paper, including watercolors, sketches,
preparatory studies, and prints that he made throughout his career.Essays by distinguished authors position
the artist’s work in relation to postwar American art and culture, which he greatly revered. Topics
include the influence of the American milieu on the Metal Pictures; space and time in the Wall Drawings
and Paintings; and the insights into Palermo’s concerns and process afforded by his works on paper. The
most comprehensive volume on Palermo’s career to date, this important book offers a rare opportunity to
explore in-depth the work of a remarkably innovative artist, pointing to Palermo’s relevance and
influence on a new generation of artists.
