Best Friends at Gallery 339

Modena, Italy. 2012 Photograph by Andrea Modica.

Opening tonight is Best Friends, platinum prints of high school kids and their best friends by Andrea Modica at Gallery 339 in Philadelphia. At a time when the word “friend” becomes more virtual and less anything real, Modica’s images are a gorgeous and fascinating exploration into who we chose to be our real–flesh and blood–best friend.
