Catalogue Note
Il ruolo dell'artista è quello di fornire le condizioni essenziali dell'esistenza dell'opera d'arte, di stabilire un sistema che sia indifferente alle forze passionali, alle reazioni personali e al tempo stesso superi tutto ciò che è arbitrario.
Un flusso di pensieri applica all'universo un insieme di reticoli, tracciati regolari e moduli per meglio definirlo e così permetterne l'esistenza. Questo flusso che già animò il Rinascimento ha suscitato vasta eco presso gli artisti contemporanei. Dorazio che ne ha fatto la sua ragione d'essere ha il privilegio di aver saputo portare la materia a un punto di incandescenza. ( Jacques Lassaigne, in Dorazio, Venezia 1977, pag. 5)
