Biography from Auctionata
Achille Perilli was born in 1927, in Rome. Now active in Turin, the painter and graphic artist was one of the authors of the manifest ‘Forma 1’ in 1947.
A follower of the ‘true’ form, his paintings are characterized through geometric, multi-irrational forms. In 1957, the artist had his first solo exhibition at the Galleria La Tartaruga in Rome. Perilli participated in the documenta 2 in Kassel, and was also repeatedly represented at the Venice Biennale.
