Descrizione
“The photographs in this book were made over the past four decades, primarily in Italy, entirely with an 8×10 view camera. I suspect I will continue this work for as long as I am taking pictures.
The title reflects the complexity of the Italian word storia, which holds meanings as diverse as history, story, situation, issue, fuss, hassle, tale, or lie. Depending on context, it may also refer to a love story, brief or ongoing. Italian Story is a broad narration: a record of events, a historical fiction.”
Andrea Modica, 2026
Italian Story is a deeply personal and poetic journey through Italy, spanning over forty years of photographic work by American photographer Andrea Modica.
Born into a third-generation Italian-American family, Modica began traveling to Italy as a young woman, gradually building a visual archive of the country’s landscapes, people, rituals, and moments of quiet intimacy. These photographs, taken across decades and regions, form a lyrical exploration of identity, memory, and belonging filtered through Modica’s singular, tactile photographic language.
