Andante is the catalogue of an exhibition that spans from 1985 to 2018, in which artist and photographer Alex Majoli researches the human soul and the most obscure elements of society. The subtle line between reality and theatre, documentary and art, human behavior and acting, is the exact friction that amazes him and brings him back on the streets and in places where the human condition is questioned. Even in the most tragic of miseries, he is able to find pride and, most of all, greatness within the human soul. For the way he creates images, Majoli can be considered a provocateur: he represents the theatrical dynamics of life, the human actions that seem to take inspiration from a play or a film set, emphasizing the drama of everyday life with artificial light. His photos become scenes, an undeclared stage where people express themselves in their “performance/life”.

ABOUT

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.
