Photographs and drawings: the galaxy of Bárbara Allende, where Ouka Leele was born. The abundant graphic material from the Lafuente Archive shows the transformation of the artist Bárbara Allende into Ouka Leele, the nickname adopted at the end of the eighties by this essential photographer in the history of twentieth-century Spanish photography. In dialogue with a careful selection of her drawings, comics, notebooks and preparatory sketches, her black-and-white and hand-coloured photographs evolve from the first family shots to sophisticated stagings, ending with her famous Peluquería series. Winner of the award for the best published book of 2021 and second prize in the bibliophilia category.

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.
