Two photographers tell 140 years of the Polli company. Scianna’s pictures dwell on the play of glances among the women of the family’s new generation; from large to small, from detail to landscape, from the human figure to the big plants, the story takes in people, machines and factories in a history of passion that, from Milan to Tuscany, hands down trust in ideas, innovation and family, starting from the bond with the land. Migliori instead "plays" with his great creativity: the manipulation of his pictures reinvents the images themselves, dreamlike, captivating and fluorescent visions born from sudden intuitions. Documentation and social research alternate with the experimentation of techniques and materials, and photography is given the task of translating a feeling into an image.

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.

We ask publishers for their permission, and we remove anything on request within 7 days.
