“What task do we want the medium to carry out? Can we consider a picture only for the way it shows itself to us? How do we reveal ourselves through our own pictures?”

In recent years the idea of the photograph as a guarantee of the reality it represents has been cut down to size. This volume examines aspects of contemporary work as staging and as practice — a small handbook of photographic resistance.

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.
