Jean Pierre Lehmans: “He marries music and pictures to create his own very personal symphonies. His masters are Van Gogh, Nicolas de Staël. Marcel Duchamp… he is a composer of colours and a painter of musical notes and an orchestra conductor of both who, at the same time knows how to make the chords of his instruments vibrate to touch the most profound chords in us.”
