Three photo-essays by Lars Tunbjörk, Pieter ten Hoopen and Elin Berge. Eksjö, Hjo, Nora – three small Swedish wooden towns that have created distinctive profiles through the most Swedish of all: lovely wooden buildings constructed by skilled craftsmen from the 18th century and onwards; buildings beautifully painted in Falu red or linseed oil paint with pigments of ochre, terra or umbra. That is one truth. Behind the facades live the townspeople; in sorrow and happiness, lives that are sometimes flawed, sometimes perfect, like most people’s. By giving three photographers from different parts of Sweden free hands for their impressions, the three towns would like to add yet another layer of truth to all those that make up a society.

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.
