Andrea Modica's 'Italian Story' Spans Four Decades of Photography

Andrea Modica's latest photobook, 'Italian Story', released by L'Artiere, showcases more than four decades of her work, predominantly captured in Italy using an 8x10 view camera. The title references the Italian term 'storia', which translates to history, story, or tale. As a third-generation Italian-American, Modica began her journeys to Italy in her youth, creating a visual record of its landscapes, people, and traditions. The book comprises 96 pages, featuring tritone printing with spot varnish. Residing in Philadelphia, she teaches at Drexel University and is a Yale School of Art alumna, Guggenheim Fellow, and Fulbright Scholar. Her work is included in major collections such as the Museum of Modern Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, among others.
