- An example for the last creational phase of Fruhtrunk, during which the effects of colour and space grow autonomous
- Because of the meticulous approach and his inimitable style Fruhtrunk's works feature highly topical aesthetics that appear digital
- Fruhtrunk is a significant precursor of Op art and contributes exceptionally to constructive art.
