Twenty-seven photographs by Antoine d'Agata and twenty-five graphic works by Francis Bacon, set out as a double volume: the two parts, bound together, can be consulted side by side so that the works of the two face each other. The texts sit in separate notebooks, so that one can read while following the visual narrative.
“What results is a free zone in which the body is a range of intensity, of action and of tension. The photographer has chosen the darkness of closed rooms as a way into that energetic matrix, at once creative and destructive.”
