"A little man, a stroller in a buttoned overcoat, tie, clean-shaven, devotes himself valiantly to carrying out the instruction of the dream. With extreme authenticity, cunning, devotion and exquisite politeness, it is magic. Though in his third age, a bit balding, not a fairground athlete by any means; though retired, duly pensioned, he does not idle, he exerts himself. It is a matter of his electric summary of existence. Time for reflection, time for exposure and staging, time to open, and there is the image. Of the quick kind, with slow development. Champion of Pascalian calculation, he bets, at great speed; he gambles his time of meditation." Anne-Marie Garat

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.
