For the release of Fleurs du mal, a dark cross between the work of Antoine d’Agata and the poet Charles Baudelaire, we invite you to join the bookshop La Comète for a signing of the artist this Wednesday, December 15th, from 7 to 9 pm.

The book is based on the original uncensored 1857 edition of Baudelaire’s collection accompanied by these engraved prints by d’Agata.

Present and past are superimposed. Like a game of transparency presented by the frame of an image on the cover. In this work, Baudelaire is a flâneur, a spectator of the world around him, of urban transformations, while d’Agata embodies photography, life and reappropriates the space of the city through gesture.
