For the past ten years Ukraine has been living with the reality of war. This new reality obscures everything. For the new generation of Ukrainians, Luhansk is an occupied territory that cannot be visited in person and be seen with one’s own eyes. For the refugees from Luhansk, the city froze primarily in the memories of the last pre-war years and months. The 1990’s seem covered by fog. These people will help us preserve the memory of the epoch of the break of the 90’s – confused, lost, and now also forgotten, as if they had never existed. But they did exist, here they are, look at them.

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.
