"Dzubas reasserts the grand manner of traditional color field painting, while in the best of the works giving us a new awareness of how far the field can be fragmented into disparate areas of color without losing its unity."

-- Donald Kuspit, "Friedel Dzubas," Artforum, vol. 21, no. 9, May 1983, p. 99


"If I experience so to speak, a little love affair with the past, it is not nostalgick [sic] or anything like that. No, it is related to what I strongly feel, and am aware of some long-stance connections and supportive structures / 'structuredness' in regard to my own feelings today and with the past of a larger tradition."
