In 1947 he was among the founders of “Forma 1” group, one of the most influential art collectives to emerge from Post World War II Italy. In the late 1940s Perilli joined the Concrete Art Movement (MAC), arranged for a publication of “Forma 2 – Homage to Kandinsky,” and created the exhibition “Abstract and concrete art in Italy.” Perilli has made important contributions to Italian art since the 1940’s. He has shown his work in highly accredited spaces such as the Venice Bienalle, the Stedelijk Museum of Amsterdam, and the Gallery Tega of Milan.
