New York, Ameringer | McEnery | Yohe, Esteban Vicente: The Garden Paintings, March - April 2011, illustrated in color, p. 28 (exhibition catalogue)
“Always in me the idea really is that when I look at paintings I disregard whether they belong to this movement or the other movement, any movement. I try to relate what I see to what to me is fundamental, which is to have something that is timeless and is related to this big thing that exists in the world which is the great, great tradition; and to be able to bring it to today somehow.”
Esteban Vicente, quoted in Elizabeth Frank, Esteban Vicente, New York 1995, p. 145
