"Over the past 30 years, French photographer Antoine d’Agata (born 1961) has undertaken various journeys in Mexico.

The concept of the book is the result of the fascination and nostalgia produced by the photos of passersby on the street, taken by the fotocineros, or street photographers, of the city. The texts, which are laid out perpendicular to the images, evoke the sen ..."
