“His bare feet prancing about over a white canvas, this angel creates a garden of flowers in prism-like colours, as if portraying peerless visions of paradise. Yet the flower garden is criss-crossed with a lattice of fine lines, like a spider’s web trembling with fear, like veins of blood. Works such as these may be easier to understand if we think of them as poems executed in paint, and Sam Francis as a poet of art.”
Mamoru Yonekura, quoted in The Recent Works of Sam Francis, Ogawa Art Foundation, 1990, p. 5-6.
