Bogdan Bogdanović’s library in Belgrade is the stuff of urban legends. Expansive and abundant, it formed the intellectual bedrock of the renowned architect’s erudite oeuvre. Since the mid-1990s, however, the famed library was largely inaccessible even to its owner, who died 2010 exiled in Vienna. “I wish my library was here with me,” Bogdanović would often lament to his wife Ksenija. The legend of the library was kept alive by the generations of Bogdanović’s students, whom he often greeted there while he still taught at the University of Belgrade. This book now brings it back into view, in the hope that, one day, it would become accessible to all.

ABOUT

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.
