Text by Eric Reinhardt

The construction of an edifice as ambitious as the Tour Granite is collective work in which each cog in the wheel is essential. It is above all a human adventure in which all participants can be proud to have contributed, whatever their role. The two photographers follow the building site of the tower, a visible symbol within a city that gives rise to a feeling of personal appropriation and becomes a site of identity.

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.
