Pascal Convert confronted the cliff of Bamiyan, where two immense Buddhas were destroyed by the Taliban in 2001. From several thousand 3D scans and photographic surveys made with a cutting-edge scientific device he created a monumental work forming the most precise view of the 1,800-metre cliff and its hundreds of sanctuary caves. The book reveals this panorama in fragments, a historic site set to disappear through erosion.

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.
