Picture "Which port will take me" (2019)

Since his childhood, the sea has held a special fascination for Pallusseck. In the seventies, Pallusseck signed on as a deckhand on a cargo ship. It was the time of the decision between two passions that determined his life since childhood: art and seafaring. Pallusseck decided against the profession of seafarer and for art. Nevertheless, the passion for the sea and sailing remained. In his works you can always find the longing for departure, for vastness and silence of the endless sea. The relentless sea is reflected in Pallusseck's prints, the logbook of the Acardia, Traven's Ship of the Dead, as well as in Britten's opera "Peter Grimes". Like Pallusseck's prints, his paintings are imbued with the mysteries of the sea. His portfolio works can be found in the collections of the - of the Museum für Kunst- und Gewerbe, Hamburg - the German National Library, Leipzig - the German National Library, Frankfurt - the Herzog August Library, Wolfenbüttel - the Lower Saxony State Library, Hanover - the Coburg State Library - the Fontane Archive, Potsdam - the German Maritime Museum, Bremerhaven
