"If I had to choose an age into which I’d fit, it would have to be the seventeenth century. During that time artists copied nature in a conceptual way. They transformed the reality of their times as I try to transform the reality of ours."

- Claudio Bravo as quoted in E.J. Sullivan, "Claudio Bravo: Perceiving the Seen," Claudio Bravo: Painter and Draftsman, Madison, Wisconsin, Elvehjem Museum of Art, 1987, p. 7.
