The publication features photos taken by Paolo Caravello in 2006 on the TV series set of I migliori nani della nostra vita (The best midgets of our life). Realized by Daniele Ciprì and Franco Maresco, the authors of the legendary Cinico TV, the series cling to a strong black and white visual language, a documentary and authorial point of view, and unconventional and sarcastic statements regarding society and humankind. Caravello in return captured truly exceptional ‘behind the scene’ moments, accompanying the directors and the protagonists in their desperately useless search of the meaning of life.

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.
