Catalogue Note
"Quello che Dubuffet cerca, con la serie dei Psycho-sites, è l'istante in cui l'immagine sorge e s'impone, presente e inafferrabile, effigie magica e sempre inquietante. I Psycho-sites non hanno in effetti, nulla dei classici paesaggi e prendono in prestito dal mondo esterno solo l'idea di luogo: sono apparizioni di uno spazio mentale dove ogni azione si fa dramma e non appartiene, come scriveva Proust , 'al mondo dello spazio dove noi le collochiamo per pura facilità'. "
Daniel Abadie, Jean Dubuffet, Parigi 2007, pag. 95
