Hundertwasser's comment on the work

Whenever I am in the tropics, in the vicinty of Tahiti, I have to think of my friend and teacher Brô, who died a tragic death. I would have liked to be with him on this palm-studded isle of Tuberuan. (from: Hundertwasser 1928-2000, Catalogue Raisonné, Vol. 2, Taschen, Cologne, 2002, p. 694)
