After all, why cinema? Because of blur, camera shake, framing, characters followed and spied on from behind? That feeling is decidedly too simple, too obvious: a captured movement, a momentary stillness, suspense, the tension of a gesture about to resume, bodies frozen mid-motion by the shot. But in what way do these images, blurred, brushed, scratched, dust-covered by the tremor, of some forty years, refer back to cinema at all, when cinema itself strains toward the sharp, the still, the smooth?

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.
