Gerry Johansson Om jag hade fyra dromedarer is a study of Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia’s capital, photographed in 2008. The city, shaped by nomadic heritage, Soviet history, and rapid urban change, became the setting for a journey prompted by Chris Marker’s elusive connection to the place — the notion, repeated even by Marker himself, that he was born there, although Belleville in Paris has also been named as his birthplace. Johansson’s photographs look at a city where different eras and ways of life exist side by side. In color, a rare departure within his practice, the images reveal the quiet contradictions of a city in transformation.

ABOUT

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.
