"Dipingo, dipingo e le mie pitture maturano nel colore luminoso e nella struttura sempre più semplice. Non più la natura, non più l’uomo, ma la natura e l’uomo dimensionati nel bisogno della più assoluta sintesi, portati a quell’estremo limite di essenzialità, nel quale finisce il ricordo per avere principio l’idea."
Antonio Calderara "I paint, I paint and my paintings mature in the bright colour and in an ever simpler structure. Not more nature, not more man, but nature and man sized in the need of the most absolute synthesis, brought to that extreme limit of the essential, where the memory ends up to let the idea begin."
