Rommert Boonstra (1942, kunstcriticus en fotograaf) schreef over dit werk: ‘…Tussen 1970 en 1985 werd een van de zeven wereldwonderen van de fotografie opgericht: de sequenties van Michel Szulc Krzyzanowski.
Hij maakte in die periode een groot aantal series met beelden die zowel over alles als over niets gaan, die de hemel bestormen zonder de aarde te verlaten, die het minieme en het oneindige op harmonieuze wijze met elkaar in verband brengen. Een monument voor het goede leven…’
