Komposition Blau Rot Auf Weiss 1965 by Blinky Palermo — Fine Art

Komposition Blau Rot Auf Weiss 1965 by Blinky Palermo uses built up painted rectangles in blue and red on a white ground. The work belongs to the material painting practice of the late twentieth century.

Each block sits with its own weight on the sheet. The fine art print is set in a frame with a back panel. The frame keeps the painted surface flat and the back panel adds a clean edge.

You see the blue and red rectangles first, then the white field around them. Hang it on a kitchen wall near the table. From the doorway the colour blocks hold the space, and the white ground stays open.
