ARTICLES / REVIEWS
Ion Zupcu was featured in the August 2009 issue of Black+White Photography (UK) for his Works
on
Paper series. In describing Zupcus images, Susan Burnstine wrote It was hard to fathom
how an
envelope or simple piece of folded paper could be photographed in a way that would be unique or
compelling. But once viewed, Zupcu's stunning imagery never ceased to amaze.
