“This attention to the everyday and to serial work, in fact, shows how this is not only a modern characteristic of the mechanical world and the art it refers to, but also of figurative painting which uses series not to mechanically achieve similarity, but more simply to humanely create difference. This is in an era of advanced technological production and reproduction of serial images and things, to which the artist responds with the aura of pictorial creation that simply gives life to the series of difference. But here, simplicity, which does not mean simplistic, is a particular characteristic that qualifies Salvo's work, simply because his art brings to mind classicism.”
– Jan Hoet, from the catalogue Arte All’Arte II, 1997
