Gabriela Lupu uses the series Just to See by Robert Delpire and Michel Frizot as a support for her own work: she makes drawings of the photographs presented in these publications. With these drawings, she creates the “History of Photography” series, calling on the big names of photography, from Nicéphore Niépce to Nancy Rexroth.
