Wolfgang Tillmans chronicles East London's art scene and nightlife of the early 2000s, as well as his friendship with collaborator and artist Conor Donlon. The book follows Donlon's changing appearance and style and his backdrops: a 2003 demonstration against George W. Bush's state visit; a picnic in the park after an opening at Tillmans's exhibition space Between Bridges; the bright yellow walls of their home; long-gone LGBT clubs The Ghetto and The Joiners' Arms; and quieter moments spent talking in the studio and around town. The photographs are at once intimate and emblematic of a flourishing arts era.

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.
