'Too Much But Not Enough' is an avant-garde fashion project by Yang LI & Antoine D'AGATA, consisting of 23 LP album covers & booklets, Intimate texts touch on themes of self-knowledge & beauty, love & disillusion, personal freedom & social constraint.

This chronologically arranged monograph on the work of Eugène ATGET shows a photograph and includes the commentary of the editor, John Szarkowski. However, it is less about an exact analysis than about capturing the context and describing the attributes.

The accordion volume 'New York 1989-93', is the first in a series of twelve volumes that are intended to make the person Antoine D'AGATA, a hypothetical double, tangible. Two coupled existences, where one cannot exist without the virtuality of the other.

Richly illustrated compendium with many readable and interesting essays. The extensive field of amateur or commercial photography is examined: pictures that were created for bureaucracy, commerce & for personal commemoration - in contrast to artistic use.
