Throughout the sensual relationship that Francesco Clemente (born 1952) has cultivated with paper surfaces runs the idea of the palimpsestthe manuscript page or parchment, often torn from a book, from which text has been effaced so that the surface can be reused. By virtue of their accumulated layers of traces, palimpsests are enormously evocative objectsevocative of human and material impermanence and the vast scale of human history. Clementes relationship with the histories of the inscribed page is widely known and celebrated; he has reinvigorated the idioms of both Indian and Italian manuscript painting, and has collaborated with poets such as Allen Ginsberg, Robert Creeley and Ren Ricard. This volume takes the palimpsest as a metaphor for Clementes art, from early works on paper to largeformat paintings and more recent, monumental watercolors.
