Co-published with the Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson

The French-Algerian photographer, winner of the Prix Henri Cartier-Bresson 2023, explores the nights of Haute-Kabylie in northern Algeria, a mountainous territory that stands in the collective imagination for resistance to imperialism, colonisation and terror across the ages. He focuses on the urban landscapes, architecture and vegetation shaping the place; a grandson of Kabyles, he does not claim an identity quest but a reading of a territory by night.

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.
