9788417047177: Antoine D'Agata: Mexico

Synopsis

Over the past 30 years, French photographer Antoine d’Agata (born 1961) has undertaken various journeys in Mexico. As a photographer, d’Agata tends to focus on societal taboos like addiction and prostitution, and embroil himself directly in these darker parts of human nature. “It’s not how photographers look at the world that is important,” d’Agata has remarked. “It’s their intimate relationship with it.”

This book is a record of the photographer’s Mexican travels, a tense, immobile diary of his experiences in the devastated landscapes of an increasingly volatile criminal society. Still images, cinematographic narratives and texts make up a personal diary that, through intimate, sexual and narcotic encounters, constructs an increasingly sickening reality. Mirroring his journey as he wanders through a lonely and marginal world, d’Agata’s photographic language seems to fracture and degenerate page by page.

As a whole, Mexico presents a complex, difficult portrait of a period that has been constructed as a time of lawlessness and criminality in Mexican society. D’Agata structures the book around six photographic movements, relating directly to different times in the contemporary history of Mexico. These chapters suggest ruptures in the continuity of history, even as D’Agata creates a narrative of descent into pain and savagery.

Encuadernación de tapa blanda. Condition: NEW. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 1ª Edición. En el curso de sus viajes por México durante los últimos treinta años, Antoine d'Agata ha extraído el material espeluznante del que ahora construye este tenso e inmóvil diario. El paisaje vacío y devastado que lo rodea es el reflejo de un entorno criminal cada vez más inestable. Instantáneas, secuencias cinematográficas y textos se combinan para formar un diario personal que, a través de encuentros sexuales íntimos y experiencias con drogas, confronta y dialoga con una realidad cada vez más abominable. Para retratar el mundo de la soledad y la marginalidad por el que ha pasado, el fotógrafo emplea un lenguaje que en sí mismo parece degenerar gradualmente y perder todos los signos de la humanidad. El libro en su conjunto constituye un retrato complejo del prolongado descenso de la sociedad mexicana al salvajismo ciego. Estructurados internamente en torno a seis movimientos fotográficos que corresponden a diferentes momentos del destino contemporáneo de México, los capítulos marcan rupturas en la continuidad de una historia que vincula a una persona con una comunidad que no es la suya, sino a la que se siente irremediablemente unida: una obra en la tradición polimórfica de fotógrafos del siglo XX que viajaron por México, como Tina Modotti, Edward Weston y Henri Cartier-Bresson.
