AUTO-PHOTOS 1976 “The work of Gretta has been originally more related to the language of photography, especially during her recent stay in Europe. Her main focus has always been the female body, including her own body "as a symbol of women's condition in our society." November, 1979 - Roberto Pontual - Ed.: Jornal do Brasil, Rio de Janeiro – “Brazil Photographic diversity...”
A WOMAN'S DIARY 1976 In the previous series of "Autofotos" what we have is the expressionist, almost goyesque vision of a woman who places herself in front of the camera to discover her own face, her own identity, that is. In fact it shows the lack of a face, or the search for this, the desperate and painful search for self awareness as a woman and as a living being. It is precisely the use of the camera as a means of search that differs her work of creation from the most conventional types of body - art". Octobre 29, 1979 - Frederico de Morais - Ed.: O Globo - Rio de Janeiro - Brazil
TRANSFORMATIONS 1976 "Rather than the manifestation of personal destructive tendencies, these images should be viewed as the externalisation of a revolt directed against the male cultural stereotype, mortifying as it does the feminine form into the authoritarian and distorting dimension of an abstract and aesthetic beauty, to which the artist opposes the angry vision of a reverse side, through a body that is deformed, disfigured and fragmented." April 1979 - Giorgio Verzotti - Magazine G7 Studio - Italy Gretta / Diagramma - Milano. "
