• The Palermo myth: young, nonconformist, progressive.
• After studying in Düsseldorf under Joseph Beuys, Palermo moved into a studio in New York in December 1973 and drew decisive inspiration from the vibrant American music and art scene.
• Palermo died in 1977 while on vacation with his girlfriend in the Maldives.
• Palermo's progressiveness had a formative influence on his fellow students Gerhard Richter and Imi Knoebel, as well as on subsequent generations of artists.
• Blinky Palermo's editions can be found in important museum collections worldwide, including the Tate Modern in London and the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
