„We know more or less what space is now, but Dorazio’s space is something else, a living reality made up of coloured energies and their arrangements, of structures that give the impression of having been born spontaneously but instead owe their existance to the artist’s impetus and the instinct of his hand.“ Will Grohmann, 1961
