Part of a series of photographic books by the author

L'Espace des Arts, the cultural centre of Les Pavillons-sous-Bois, a small town in the Parisian suburbs, is one of those fruits of glorious modernity dented by successive developments in office automation and security standards. In the fall of 2021 Julien Carreyn took over this private room for spectators, going there every Thursday with friends and models, and the book gives an account of the experience, with the photographs arranged by Myriam Barchechat like a puzzle game. Where Le Moulin des Ribes catalogued a space of order and beauty, this is a closed-door experience in which a secret spectacle is played out. The spectre of Mondrian appears between a table and an office chair, stored display cases recall a hall of mirrors being assembled, and light spots on a portrait are either a spiritualist aura or a defect in the Polaroid. Produced with the support of La Società delle Api.

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.
