"Painting is for Alechinsky to find a rhythm, to lose himself, to go where the brush leads him, not to stem the flow which, when all goes well, materializes on a sheet of paper. One has to be ready to respond to everything which may happen during one's work. To control gently. Not to force anything. On the contrary to seek the happy chance. . . all attention centred on a dream which unrolls before him and to which he responds with improvisations like a jazz musician."

Jacques Michel, Le Monde, 6 March 1975
