"I see Knoebel as a magic puppet player, who – on the qui vive – pulls his strings somewhere at the center of the eighty years of abstraction, making abstract art dance like it never has before.“
Rudi Fuchs, quote after: Ex. cat. Imi Knoebel. Retrospective 1968 – 1996, Munich, Amsterdam, Valencia, Düsseldorf, Grenoble 1996 – 1997.
