Ciudad de México, published by HYDRA, contains 106 black-and-white photographs that Héctor García made in Mexico City between 1950 and 1970. With an original design, panoramic and aerial double-page images unfold in combination with inserts that let us come closer to portraits, scenes of everyday life and surprising details of the city, offering the viewer an intimate experience with the people who inhabit it and its many settings. Iconic and previously unpublished images from the holdings of the María and Héctor García Foundation are included.

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.
