Fulvio Palombo's work demonstrates how an artistic expression rooted in one culture can be redefined in another:
the subtle Italian sensibility of Palombo's work is combined with the gestural impetuosity and spontaneity of the action painting.

...Fulvio Palombo is holding his abstract-expressionist door open and you will see everything your imagination will allow.
You'll perceive forms, colors, emotions, expressions as you leave reality and voyage in the landscapes he has created - in infinity- composed of earth, sea and sky, in dazzling colors.
You may see oceans, suns, the depths of night or shimmering dawns.
Whatever happens, you cannot fail to capture, and be affected by the joy, the wonder and the excitement that comes with discovering that you are free to voyage to the center of the realm where these colour-scapes originate.

Susie White Rome, June 1995

Imagine taking a piece of the moon, a fragment of kingly magenta, sharp lemon, sophisticated black, forest green, and hurling these colors into space, then freezing them.
Stop-start motion. The colors move. Forms shift, reassemble. Dance.
While you watch...This is how one experiences Fulvio Palombo's paintings, although "painting" is perhaps too static a word to describe these abstract expressionist works; in fact, they are more like mobiles, scenes that shift before your eyes.
Come alive. Pulsate. Breathe. Speak. Energy is harnessed, then released. At his two recent one-person shows in Switzerland and Italy, a new element -or rather two- entered Palombo's work: Byzantine gold and silver. The effects are extraordinary: eloquent swirls and stirring, singing life change with the light: in the sun the gold and silver flash, like the feathers of a dove; at night they vanish and take you down to an undersea world of rubies and emeralds.

Susie White Rome, may 1996

The new paintings are spectaculars. It is the sort of thing that I find myself just wanting to look at and somehow lose myself in.
They seem both primitive and new at the same time and express or convey in a new way something that has been there for all time.

Here is that special and unique imprint of the human hand involved in the act. Palombo's art reechoes the emotional and aggressive vibrancy of the dramatic post war artists of Abstract Expressionism without forfeiting the sense and immediacy of the moment. He has taken the leap into the past of more than two decades in order to reconnect that valuable heritage to his personal discoveries and solitary searching. His efforts as we witness are highly rewarding.
