Specialist note

'I paint networked versions of the great drama of the figure in space, an indestructible, essentially organic constellation exposed to extreme deformation. Depicting this deformation automatically generates new figurations, but it also generates a new form of abstraction, in the colloquial sense of that word'.
(A. Butzer in conversation with Berthold Rei, April 2006, https://www.undo.net/it/mostra/57409).
