Second volume in the Negotiating Images series

How do we understand, discuss and visualise nature today, now that the human race has reached the very last corner of the world? The publication interprets landscape as an ever-changing social, economic and ecological construct, addressing questions of power, identity and natural resources and following histories of surveillance and colonialism, with photographic and post-photographic images as central to the way we interact with the world. Texts by scholars and artists cover scopic regimes and shaped geographies, the myth of the intact and unspoiled, the use of landscape to solidify colonial hegemonies, Jerusalem's geofence, the history of the virtual globe and the surface of the earth as a recording device. They are counterposed with images from historical and contemporary art, documentary photography, photo reportage and AI-generated imagery.

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.
