  Kalervo Palsa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hugo Kalervo Palsa (March 12, 1947 - October 3, 1987), or Kalle was a Finnish artist in a style that has been described as fantastic realism.
Long neglected, Kalervo Palsa has enjoyed a revival of sorts since the publication of critical works, a biography and two major retrospectives in Helsinki and Pori.
Palsa did have a brief fling with abstract art while staying in New York, but as he recounts in his diary, that phase came to an abrupt halt when one day he saw a passed out fl man sprawled on a subway bench.

With time the notables from Kittilä who opposed the monument strenously have instead begun to express pride that an internationally reknowned artist is a local boy.
Grotesque sexuality, sadism, homosexuality, bisexuality and a general emotionally frigid paraphilia reflects his own inner turmoil and is a reaction to his hometowns mental atmosphere.

 Framework 1/2004
I am convinced that, through Palsa, interest in also living Lapland artists will grow, because, like Palsa, many are struggling with problems typical of the periphery and are criticising double standards, reflecting upon the madness of the world, and even turning their humanising and critical gaze on Santa himself.
Kalervo Palsa (1947-87) was born and lived in Kittilä;, a small locality in the north of Finland, where he painted images of death, sex, violence and alcoholism with uncompromising moral rhetoric and bound up with highly personal experiences.
After Palsa’s death the three northern art museums in Tornio, Kemi and Rovaniemi produced in collaboration a major touring exhibition and an accompanying catalogue Kalervo Palsan (1947-1987) elämästä ja taiteesta (On the Art and Life of Kalervo Palsa (1947-1987)) in 1989.

Palsa forces us to think about why we should be embarrassed about our own anality, when its ’shamefulness‘ is difficult to justify, to say the least.
Palsa also seems to force us to think about everything we would rather not think about, as it would be so much nicer if the world was a completely rational, quasi-tolerant, and quasi-pleasant place.
Kalervo Palsa preached against this straitjacket of denial and conformity.

 Avanto Festival 2001
Kake Puhuu’s astounding live performances, complete with speaker’s stands, giant bird boxes and smell effects, his virtuoso lyrics, which represent Finnish modern poetry at its most intense, and his dreamlike photography on the covers of Keuhkot records all come together as an integrated work of art.
With its uncompromising attitude, its earnest pondering of existential questions and a cruel sense of humour, it shares a distinct affinity with other Finnish artists influenced by ”arctic hysteria” – like Teemu Mäki and Kalervo Palsa or the bands on Oulu’s Bad Vugum label – and even veers close to Finnish ”outsider art”.
The music of Keuhkot builds on the foundation laid by The Residents in the 70’s, but spices things up with Arabic folk influences and the fuzzy echos of punk and industrial music, finishing it off with Kake’s visionary, Finnish lyrics.

 Finnish Contemporary art — Virtual Finland
Kalervo Palsa (1947-1987) also made a name for himself in the 70s, but was deprived of wider recognition until the 80s.
Palsa's work falls into a sub-genre between painting and comic strips.
The brutal world depicted in his paintings delves into themes revolving around death and sexuality, as if to anticipate the preoccupation with the human body that emerged in the work of later artists.

 Henri Hakkarainen - Pravda
The Kalervo Palsa exhibition at Kiasma opened today, and I went to see it with Taika, Jaakko, and Markus.
Palsa's art is excellent, but it's a lot of work taking in the complex works and the subtly changing variations of the same themes.
We got through one of the two floors dedicated to the man, and decided to check out the other one and the sixty-minute documentary on him at a later date.
