A limited supplement volume to Tim Coghlan's 2018 book Hell's Gates, Notre Damned, An Act of God directs his strategic Google Images searches to photographs of the blaze that felled Notre Dame cathedral in Paris in April 2019. Like the sibling edition, it smirkingly riffs off the visual languages and attitudes of black metal to question the iconography, implications and democracy of images. The book is a concentrated document of a single catastrophic event as mediated through amateur, public domain and press photography.

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.
