Quotes about Griebler

"... a real genius, brittle in the best and fullest artistic obstinacy."

"A sparkling witty intelligence, at the same time melancholy poetry, and everything testifies to a technical perfection that one would have to call old masters, were Griebler's style not so modern and wildly unpredictable."

“He is an extraordinary talent. You don't have to bring your shrill, weird personality into play alone. His work is ingenious enough that it can be discussed for a long time. I think Matthias Griebler has incredible potential. "
