"Sérgio Monteiro de Almeida's art comprises a wide range of media and themes. What unites this diverse body of work, the output of several decades of intensive artistic creation, is the presence of the human, specifically the artist himself, who appears as a kind of stand-in for the viewer....That is, Monteiro de Almeida manages successfully to conflate the concrete specific details of his own life as creative being in a given time and place with a set of objective correlatives to which the viewer can respond in his or her own unique fashion."--p. 143, Harry Polkinhorn, San Diego State University, 2006
"Possessing great versatility, Sérgio Monteiro de Almeida has an intense activity as a visual artist (art mail, installations, engraving and drawing) and visual poet, in which he is internationally renowned."--p. 144, Adalice Araújo, Universidade Federal do Paraná, 1994
