Charles Palminteri is a bold, abstract painter of the “action” school. Many of his works are purchased by architects for office buildings and executive homes in New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and Florida. Mr. Palminteri has exhibited at Foote Cone & Belding in Manhattan, rocheBobois in Estero Fla., the Sweet art Gallery in Naples, Fla., the Speak Easy Gallery in Boonton, N.J., and the George Segal Gallery at Montclair State University. Palminteri uses a variety of styles and approaches in an abstract impressionist framework. Some are large bold patterns and shapes developed from Japanese Kanji and Hiragana calligraphy.
The stark contrast of these shapes in their background sets up a tension between the negative and positive areas that demand attention from the viewer.
In other works, Palminteri’s lines are soft and flowing. With a series of undercoatings, he achieves a luminosity of color and light. His shapes lead the viewer into a maze of dreams and fantasy. No matter how soft the lines and shapes, the overall message is strong and clear.
