" L'inquiétude, l'impatience, le stress, le défi, l'arrogance, le soulagement, le quant-à-soi torero, l'impassibilité arrachée à d'intenses sensations, le scepticisme, la joie, le courage recyclé en colère, l'enthousiasme, la lassitude, les photographies de Blaise Volckaert mettent en lumières cet arc-en-ciel d'émotions qui traverse ces hommes au moment où le toro passe en eux, les obscurcit comme un nuage ou les éclaire comme un soleil. Au moment où, sur leurs traits, s'imprime son discours. Ce qu'il dit, ces visages le réverbèrent. " (Jacques Durand).
" Les toreros sont des créateurs d'art éphémère qui dessinent leurs histoires dans la toile d'un capote ou d'une muleta, transformés pour l'occasion en gladiateurs des temps modernes... La quête de l'émotion taurine est un moment unique pour qui approche ces hommes sortis d'un autre âge, au détour d'un amphithéâtre romain ou d'une chambre d'hôtel. Prêter mes images au talent et à l'espièglerie, pour des textes inédits de Jacques Durand, figura de la littérature taurine, est un pur plaisir d'aficion... " (Blaise Volckaert).
