With deep sadness, we mark the passing of Mimmo Jodice (1934–2025) — a visionary photographer whose work reshaped how we see the Mediterranean, time, memory, and landscape.
Born in Naples, Jodice began in the late 1950s and ’60s as a self-taught explorer of photography. 
He taught at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Napoli from 1970 until the mid-1990s, shaping a generation of Italian photographers.
Jodice’s photographs invite us not just to see but to reflect. The silence in his images asks: What is our relation to time, to place, to what was and what remains?
His work challenges the purely documentary role of photography — the image becomes less about “what happened” and more about “what lingers”.
As we say goodbye, we celebrate his gift: the ability to make us pause and listen to the whisper of stones, seas, skies. Thank you for showing us the quiet grandeur of the overlooked.
“In Jodice’s work, silence takes over places and the photographs become metaphysical visions.”
