Casa Piedra delves into the history of a site in La Serena, Chile, known as Casa Piedra, which was a clandestine detention centre operated by the National Intelligence Directorate (CNI) during the Pinochet dictatorship. It is estimated to have been active between 1982 and 1985. During that period its walls witnessed the gravest human rights violations: detention, torture and various crimes against humanity carried out with the systematic aim of dismantling the opposition to the regime. Through images and testimonies, this photobook not only reconstructs the physical and emotional space of the site but is an act of symbolic reparation and a call to keep historical memory alive.

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.
