This book presents the work of the artist F. Bonniot who collected for a year 365 dairy deserts, with the expiration date of each day of the year written on it.

I have three children and I regularly buy dairy products for them, mostly yogurt. I like to stroll through this department of the supermarket, whose rigor of organization is matched only by the beauty of the packaging of the displayed products. Customers choose yogurts based on packaging, brands and of course their own taste. For my part, in 2009, I decided to have only one choice criterion: their expiry date. By buying and then eating dairy products with an expiration date of January 1 to December 31, I made a consumer collection. So I selected and then consumed with my family throughout the year yogurts mentioning the 365 dates. "

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.
