“The problem of how color goes on something, so that it becomes realcolor, is what interests me in the work of Palermo; it seems the thread which unites his entire œuvre - in an insane world, he brings sanity. But it is a kind of blood sanity, that, if there were insanity, would still becapable of being found out. When I ask myself what the point is in mywork of 1975-85, the answer is: the point is number. Number is held between idea and substance. The wall is idea; the work is substance. Richard Tuttle 17.8.85”
