Hundertwasser's comment on the work

I was angry that I wasn't able to solve the problem of green". (from: Cat. Albertina, Vienna, 1974, p. 56)For years I hated the colour green. I had a deep-seated reason for disliking everything that was the colour of foliage, without knowing what it was. (from: Hundertwasser 1928-2000, Catalogue Raisonné, Vol. 2, Taschen, Cologne, 2002, p. 93)
