Photology is particularly proud of merging the popular photographic work of Tina Modotti to the discreet and rarely seen images of her time life biographer Pino Cacucci. Under the Mexican sky, the title for our online exhibition, is inspired by the most recent book by Pino Cacucci on Tina Modotti which was published by Photology in 2009. Pino’s passionate link with Tina Modotti is going back in time, since his very first trip to Mexico City in 1982 when he discovered her greatness as a revolutionary woman and artist, one of the most important Italian figures active abroad at the beginning of the Twentieth Century. It’s not a case if two major events are currently bringing her works back to popular attention. Tina Modotti retrospective at the Jeu de Paume in Paris is breaking records for a photo exhibition and her inclusion in “Foreigners Everywhere” at the Venice Biennale, is giving voice to her most radical works specifically selected by Brazilian curator Adriano Pedrosa. Pino Cacucci, on the other hand, has kept investigating Mexican culture with a series of biographical books beyond Tina Modotti, about Nahui, Frida Kahlo, and just recently Pancho Villa. As he is still using photography as a recording tool of places, things and people, his creativity has melted reality with imagination bringing to life one of a kind surrealistic works of art. The Photology Online Exhibition “Under the Mexican Sky” is highlighting both artists in separated halls, creating a bridge of 100 years from Modotti’s first Portfolio of 15 photographs to the intense anthropological pictures of Mexico by Cacucci.
