“Kalcev belongs to the artistic trends of the post modernist period, although he is neither burdened by some of their aggressively stated demands nor tempted by nonchalant nomadism. On the contrary, he is a painter who has chosen to develop his own method of building the painting, showing consistency in the composition of its unique plastic and semantic structure and allowing no one-sided interpretations. At the same time, the cultivated thinking process makes it possible for the painter’s procedure to be on par with the idea: everything is lege artis – both the thought and it’s realization.”
