According to Neiza Teixeira, doctor in philosophy and editorial coordinator at Valer, Bacellar is one of the most important poets of the Amazon, and he also needs to be known throughout Brazil and the world, because his poems, “from a formal point of view, they are polished like a precious jewel, which allows us, in addition to beauty, to understand and reach the depth of the word.”

Tenório Telles, president of the Municipal Council of Culture, celebrates the great poet.

“Luiz Bacellar symbolizes poetry and represents in our literary production the figure of the creator, the master of the word. His poetry is composed with the matter of memory, the regional universe and his recollections of the city of Manaus”,

he said.
