拍品专文

"Sculpture brings me a special pleasure- that of touching the new reality that you create. Certainly, in a painting you give the illusion of truth, but with sculpture you can touch its reality...it's an object from your spirit, it's a sensual experience even in its execution. It brings a special joy to touch the material with your hands."

- Fernando Botero (quoted in E. Sullivan, Botero Sculpture, 1986, p.13).
