Drawings/Lines
“In Drawings/Lines, 1971, on top of previously printed film—was he just recycling material or was he deliberately experimenting with a new technique?—Palolo scratched lines directly on the celluloid, imprinting on it a choreography of rhythms and lights. The background images, unified by an overall tone of blue and purple, fluctuate from barely visible to perfectly recognizable, producing a fascinating layered effect with material as diverse as Marlene Dietrich, the Beatles’ yellow submarine, Adolf Hitler, Botticelli’s Venus, and a painting by Magritte.” (Filipa Oliveira)
