About Me
- Blinky
- Blinky Palermo, born Peter Schwarze, aka Peter Heisterkamp (June 2, 1943 - February 18, 1977), was a German abstract painter. Schwarze (whose last name became Heisterkamp when he was adopted as an infant) was given his outlandish name in 1964, during his studies with Joseph Beuys at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf. The name refers to an American Mafioso and boxing promoter who was famous at the time for "owning" Sonny Liston. According to legend, it was given to Schwarze at the suggestion of Beuys when the famous teacher noticed the physical resemblance between Schwarze and the gangster.

Justin,
Great job, I like how the clip matches the picture perfectly!

I really love the image for this. I like the muted and dusty colors and the scratchy-ness to the lines throughout. The image itself is just really strong that I would enjoy it even without the sound.

Your picture is interesting, and the sound matches perfectly.
