“La obra de Amador es un privilegio visual como tocar el cielo con las pupilas”
Ray Zamora
“Te felicito de todo corazon, la exhibicion quedo de primerisima calidad. En todas las exhibiciones que he asistido en el Tower, esta es la primera donde la asistencia fue de primer orden. Mis felicitaciones tambien a la persona que curo la misma. El orden en que se colgaron mejor no pudo ser.”

“Whether we believe in the symbol of the cross or the Christian sense of resurrection or not, we can all understand getting up after falling. To say that Calixto Amador's painting, titled resurrection, is powerful, would mean to place a value on a piece of work that transcendence the mundane. Like Carbon and Diamante, based on one of Cuba's most beloved poet and hero Jose Marti's verse, he has always thought of himself as a carbon, a simple spec in a vast ocean of many. But like Jose Marti's verse,” ...y todo, como el diamante, antes de luz es carbon... “Osvaldo Calixto Amador had a successful night on January 29th of 2010. The world has just begun to see one of the great one's emerge from pure obscurity.”

You have so much to say, no, actually scream! The intensity of your work is so palpable, like a feast at a King's banquet! You unite the classiness of the intensity of Baroque colors with the expression of modernism. Fabulous!!!! Bravo!!! Aside from writing about your work, I’m also blessed to be your friend.

There's so much to focus on, and clearly, the spiritual aspect is the driving force behind your spectacular work. Still, I am quite taken by the extraordinary richness of your colors. I kept coming back to “nature” with its streaking layers of blacks and deep blues, only to discover each time a new and richer color elbowing its way to the surface. There have been few exhibits of abstract art that I have seen in my life that explode with the kind of color and movement like this series. I love your boldness.
