Charly Palmer Biography
Charly
Palmer is rapidly becoming one of America’s
important emerging artists. Born in Fayette, Alabama
and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Charly’s
current body of work addresses the historical,
political and socially-relevant issues of strength
and survival which still dominate the American
agenda.
At
the request of curator, Terrell Tilford, Charly
answered the call to address various issues which
pertain to the Latin American experience, a frame
of reference outside of Charly’s own experiences as an African
American. These works are exemplified in the current
show, …mud.
His
current feeling that ‘the more things change,
the more they remain the same’ permeates his
paintings, while unapologetically infusing the truth
of what being an American means. Now living in Stone
Mountain, Georgia, Charly has had several exhibitions
with Tilford Art Group, including his highly-successful
solo show last year, Truth Be Told.
