From horse manure to a fortified residence, through canine trophies, Thierry Bouët watches out for surprising objects sold on the French classified-advertisements website Le Bon Coin. He contacts the sellers, meets them and photographs them with their goods, alongside the real published advertisement and short, humorous texts about the encounter. The result is a bemused portrait of our consumer society in which everything is for sale.

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.
