“In clearing the canvas of all unessentials, I was more and more reduced to a few, simple, meaningful forms, and these forms were the content of my message. Naturally, color came more and more into play, and I discovered that what I can reach emotionally and express by color is infinite”
(Friedel Dzubas, as quoted in Charles W. Millard, “Interview with Friedel Dzubas”, Friedel Dzubas, Washington, D.C. 1983, p. 28, catalogue for exhibition at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden)
