«Si habile soit-elle - comme une libellule - la main de Cárdenas pour notre bonheur en reste, à ce stade, hautement privilégiée. Voici jailli de ses doigts le grand totem en fleurs qui, mieux qu’un saxophone cambre la taille des belles.» André Breton au sujet d'Agustin Cardenas dans le cadre de l'exposition de ce dernier à La Cour d'Ingres à Paris en 1959.
"As skilled as it is - like a ladybug - Cardenas' hand wishfully remains to this stage highly privileged. Here is the tall blooming totem bursting out of his fingers, which arches the size of its beauties better than a saxophone." André Breton
