Recenzje

'The Correspondence is a rich and extremely rigorous enquiry by two creator-thinkers into the range and the means of this enquiry, and is of the utmost importance for artists, philosophers and scientists alike.' - The Art Book

'This is a fascinating and open, sometimes demanding, dialogue on the nature of creativity, on art and science ... between two thinkers who believed in venturing outside the main currents of contemporary thinking.' - The Globe and Mail
