Bernard Perlin with New York (2011)

Bernard Perlin revisiting his 1954 depiction of the New York City skyline, painted upon his return after five years in Italy.

Bernard Perlin was an extraordinary figure in 20th Century American art and gay cultural history, an acclaimed artist and sexual renegade who reveled in pushing social, political, and artistic boundaries.

In the new book ONE-MAN SHOW: THE LIFE AND ART OF BERNARD PERLIN, Michael Schreiber chronicles the storied life, illustrious friends and lovers, and astounding adventures of Bernard Perlin through no-holds-barred interviews with the artist, candid excerpts from Perlin’s unpublished memoirs, never-before-seen photos, and an extensive selection of Bernard Perlin’s incredible public and private art.
