"The complexity of Stadler's work takes into account the minute inflections of surface and the air-and-light-filled effect of the whole. These paintings are as fascinating close up as they are at a distance. Stadler is the heir of Morris Louis. His knowledge of color-color both as sensation and structure-furthers our insight into the complexities of perception."- Gene Baro, "The Way of Color"
