Albanian Encyclopedia, Tirana, Albania

“Odhise Paskali’s exhibition, which has been organised within the framework of cultural exchanges with our neighbouring country Albania, has a special significance for us since the the artist, as he himself says, ‘expresses himself' correctly and more completely for the reason that he acquired both a Greek and a Latin education. Looking at the creations of Odhise Paskali, artist, sage and scholar, we experience emotions which bring us closer to a Balkan people, because in the history of the peoples of the Balkan Peninsula we encounter similar conditions for mutual respect and understanding which lead us towards a peaceful coexistence and distance us from the fear of catastrophe”.
