Upcoming Book
As We Wait, monograph
Andrea Modica's forthcoming book contains a collection of photographs from her recent projects, edited and sequenced by Larry Fink. Modica's new monograph is being produced and distributed by the renowned Italian printing company Grafiche dell'Artiere. Complete with an illumination essay by Fink, As We Wait will be available during Summer of 2015.
"Andrea Modica works with sensual love as her base but aligned with a darkness which is pervasive, so much so that it can color your dreams. The work is not hopeless but breathless, as if there is an atmospheric gauze placed over the larynx So that breathing has to be softened, done in silence so that walking the tight rope between an exalted life and a sultry death .you shan’t emit too loud a sound. The balance is so tentative, so tactile, so absolutely fragile that there is the danger of tipping the scales of mortality in clear sight."
- Larry Fink
Photography students at Drexel University get a first look at an advanced copy of Andrea Modica's upcoming book, As We Wait.
