Note du spécialiste

"When one is with Neo Rauch, everything forces one to pay attention to details. For one speculates that only exactness can provide a key to the painter's giant pictures. They seem like Spanish taverns where one is served what one brings oneself. One has to enter into the artist's own syntax, recognise the themes and motifs that leap from one canvas to the other." (W. Spies, "In the Prohibited Zone of Happiness" in Neo Rauch: Para, pp.7)
