Ron Jude's emmett brings new life to a selection of his earliest work, made in the early 1980s in central Idaho. Enhanced by special-effects filters and cheap telephoto lenses, the pictures range from hazy scenes of a summertime drag race, a recurring forest in changing seasons and midnight horror films on a television, to a Nordic-looking teenager who appears like a specter from the artist's past. Edited nearly thirty years after it was made, this accidental, experimental body of work acquires unexpected nuance and humour and the cohesion of a dream: memories reorganised into a fictionalised narrative, suffused with melancholy and the prismatic glow of youthful reverie.

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.
