Hundertwasser's comment on the work
THE RIGHT TO DREAM
The dreams are the last kingdom where man can take refuge and recover.
Spoiling dreams is like taking away the roots and the future from man and nothing is left for him to long for.
Man lives and feeds of dreams. Taking constantly away dreams from man in our rationalistic society is a crime because dreams are the precondition of creation.
