“For the trained eye, a Poliakoff painting does not present a problem but, rather, a confirmation.

Its great external simplicity does not deceive anyone about its rare
distinction of colors and forms.

These colored shapes are not just painterly stencils but emanation from space that bring their own color.

Poliakoff does not simply invent curved or
straight planes on the designed stone so as to
color them in.

They flow from him as if they were the natural truth of nature itself”.
