Published to coincide with exhibitions at the Mauvoisin Dam, the Museum of Bagnes in Le Châble, and Fotomuseum Winterthur. ' The Grand Tour is a travelogue through the world of maps' is Kasia Klimpel s description of her virtual travel images. Klimpel smuggles her own photographic yet fictional model landscapes which she produces through the traditional means of paper and light into the operating systems and web sharing sites of global search engines. In doing so, she plays with the unpredictability of algorithms. When and under what conditions are her staged images of horizons, mountain panoramas and sunsets inserted into these systems as geotags?

ABOUT

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.
