2 In Stoff hinein

"Deshalb ist die Horizontale auch eine Lage der Solidarität"
   Aus Franz Xaver Bayer, Der Raum, 2000

Blinky Palermo
   Palermo's “Fabric Paintings” (1968–1970)  read as simultaneously mildly satiric — send-ups of Brice Marden’s exquisitely wrought monochrome panel paintings – and optically engaging in their own right, with their subtle color juxtapositions and physical modesty.

a glowing optical unit that is recognizably a painting but that does not disguise the everyday quality of its origins.

Helen Frankenthaler, Mountains and Sea, 1952
   “… looking to many people like a large paint rag, casually accidental and incomplete.” so beschreibt Helen Frankenthaler eine scheinbar unfertig wirkende Malerei, die heute in der National Gallery of Art in Washington ausgestellt ist.
“There are no rules. Let the picture lead you where it must go.”
Helen Frankenthaler (5:46)
