»A photograph is always also an image of absence... accordingly, a different image is created in each viewer by the same photograph.« (Margherita Spiluttini) Margherita Spiluttini established Austrian architecture photography about 25 years ago. With her photographs of private and public buildings by unknown as well as celebrated architects she has become a trusted and much demanded chronicler of national and international architecture, one who has made a significant contribution to the way architecture is seen. She is now one of the most important proponents of the genre. Margherita Spiluttini's work is not restricted to a comprehensive chronicle of Austrian architecture and major buildings by star architects in the international arena. Spiluttini's own works »After Nature« and »Narrative Strips« prove, above all, her artistic stature too. The publication addresses the translation of architecture into the visual language of a single photographer. The documented buildings and landscapes, the selection of their special pictorial narratives, develop a unified visual language with depth, comprising an Austrian pictorial atlas, a conceptual art installation with the key message architecture.

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.

We ask publishers for their permission, and we remove anything on request within 7 days.
