Catherine Poncin is, as the art historian Paul Ardenne puts it, a post-photographer, in the sense of post-production: she gathers ready-made, banal photographic images wherever she finds them, from flea markets to abandoned archives, then selects a picture for its potential as a vessel of memory and begins to investigate it. This book gathers work from residencies Poncin undertook in Bogotá, Colombia, among other places, extending her ongoing practice of excavating meaning from discarded and anonymous photographs.

ABOUT

The project

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.

Images and rights

Covers, interior pages and descriptions are shown to introduce and identify the books, always crediting publisher, author and photographer and linking back to the publisher. We ask publishers for their permission, and we remove anything on request within 7 days. If you are a publisher, an author or a photographer and you want something changed or removed, write to info@spineindex.it.
