Punctum is printed on the occasion of Punctum: Reflections on Photography, an exhibition held at the Salzburger Kunstverein (7/26-9/21/2014) and curated by Séamus Kealy. Exploring the nature of photography today, and consisting of fifty photographs chosen by artists, curators and writers, Punctum takes its cue from the term coined by Roland Barthes in Camera Lucida: Reflections on Photography. Participants selected photographs that, for each of them, are emblematic of “punctum,” given today’s context for photography and our constant grappling with aesthetics. artists: Kader Attia, Geoffrey Batchen, Sabine Bitter & Helmut Weber, Iñaki Bonillas, Moyra Davey, Willie Doherty, Ines Doujak, et al.

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.
