Published in 2003 by Images en Manœuvres Éditions, *Insomnia* brings together the intense photographic world of Antoine d’Agata, an artist associated with Agence VU’. Spanning 192 pages in a substantial paperback format, the book directly confronts d’Agata’s central preoccupations: the nocturnal realm, sexuality, and continuous wandering across international landscapes.

The volume gains additional depth through its collaborative literary framework. Writer Bruno Le Dantec accompanied d’Agata across multiple countries during these shoots, providing a textual presence that mirrors the itinerant conditions of the imagery. Complementing Le Dantec’s writing, Christian Caujolle, artistic director of Galerie VU’, contributes critical context, anchoring d’Agata’s visceral aesthetic within contemporary French photographic practice.

For collectors of modern documentary and expressive photography, *Insomnia* represents a key publication from a pivotal phase of d’Agata’s career. It synthesizes image and text into a coherent monograph, offering a direct encounter with an uncompromising visual language shaped through personal risk, transience, and the margins of urban night.
