Apricot Poodle investigates imitation as a mechanism of social belonging by following a series of families from different socioeconomic backgrounds who converge in choosing the same breed and color of pet. The apricot-colored poodle becomes a symbol of distinction, and depending on its meaning for each family—whether as a reflection of their lifestyle or a significant financial effort—its appearance and care vary across different neighborhoods in the city.

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.
