“In confronting the question of space, Thiebaud pushes his solutions to the limit: mountains and skyscrapers soar to giddying heights, buildings and trees teeter on exaggerated bluffs, streets rise and drop like huge slippery slides... Painting for Thiebaud is a quest of confronting in the deepest and fullest way possible each problem the artist chooses to face” (K. Tsujimoto, Wayne Thiebaud, Seattle, 1985, p. 134).
