"... details are transformed into an appearing image, which looks flamboyant but at the same time severe and scheming, disposed of all cohesion. "... his work is not reduced to a thing that stands on its own. It serves a useful purpose: it has to be discovered and to be read, and during this process, it surpasses the aesthetic."
"... a modern in-fill in which the line and the color find a balance"
"... in Georges Libbrecht’s work we find this naïve amazement about the wonders of the world and the cool functionalism of this time, the duality between fantasy and reality. His art is a mixture of classic elements and a contemporary attitude towards life, an injection of sensory and super sensory enjoyment, the subversion and the poetry as a proposal for freedom, movement and cosmic consciousness" "... art is not isolated, the division in disciplines leads to alienation, to a gap between specialists and the larger public, art requires knowledge and understanding of the interaction of many factors: mathematics, number theory, science, logic, also the complexity of life itself"
"... triptychs with on the one hand the lunar phases, the gravitation forces, octant, sextant and St. James's staff, symbols for science, on the other hand the moon night, the fantasy of the event, the capricious interaction within one and the same frame"
"... the work consists of successive cycles in which the use of objects from a previous theme recurs in the next series, this results in a closing unity" "... it contains a though logic that, however, is not incompatible with the instinctive"
"... painted ideas, the coherence of word and image, the observator analyses the powerful insect leg system, the breaking of the light in the wings and the wing cases of the beetles, the micro-world is commented upon - opposite the large world: at some places in the cosmos there is an invisible mass, matter, the black holes are made visible.." (About "the painter and the micro - and macro cosmos")
