A year told through the pictures of great photographers. 1969 was also the year of the death of Jan Palach, of the Piazza Fontana bombing, of the Vietnam War and the Nixon presidency, of Give Peace a Chance and the Woodstock festival, of the first appearances of Led Zeppelin, Genesis and David Bowie, of Rivera’s Milan, of Easy Rider, Midnight Cowboy and Butch Cassidy. A year that belongs more than any other to the collective imagination. Through the extraordinary force of these images we can relive the most decisive events, discover anniversaries and remember the great protagonists. A special year, made of intense and epoch-making moments. An unforgettable year.

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.
