Treadwell

Andrea Modica is one of the most accomplished and critically acclaimed young photographers to emerge in the last five years. Treadwell is Modica's first major published collection - a rich, empathetic, and often wrenching study of small town family life in upstate New York.

Focusing on one young girl and her extended clan of family and friends, with whom Modica forged a ten-year relationship, the images in Treadwell express pathos and humanity without sentimentality or spectacle. Including 40 exquisite duotone photographs and an essay by Pulitzer prize-winning writer E. Annie Proulx, this seminal work makes a distinguished contribution to the visual chronicle of human experience in the twentieth century.
