In her group of works »Desire in Representation« Peggy Buth explores the construction of meaning and identity in colonialism. Buth conducted research for her work at the Museé royal d‘Afrique centrale in Tervuren near Brussels. In 2008 she published the two volume artist book »Desire in Representation. Travelling through the Museum Royale (Part 1) / O My Kalulu! (Part (2)« in co-operation with book designer and typographer Till Gathmann. For an exhibition at Württembergischer Kunstverein in Stuttgart Buth presented the publication as a multi-media installation. »Katalog« documents and translates the spatial situation and the video pieces presented at the exhibition into an adequate form for print, the result is a catalogue of the different forms of representation of the artistic material.

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.
