“Conrad Marca-Relli’s achievement has been to raise collage to a scale and complexity equal to that of monumental painting…he has used it neither as a single element of structural reordering of reality as in a Cubist collage, nor as ambiguous fragments evoking exterior associations, as did the Surrealists. Rather, Marca-Relli has extended collage to the point where it now carries its own full and distinct range of formal and emotive means.” (William C. Agee, Marca-Relli, New York, 1967, p. 9)
