The first volume on the work of Antonio Syxty as a performance artist and director of Milan's alternative scene, built from images, drawings and texts from his archive. Tied to underground creativity and to the Out Off, Milan's only basement theatre, it draws on more than twenty-five shows and performances staged between 1978 and 1982: drawings, collages, photographs and texts. A knowingly incomplete overview, it ends with a fragmented list of purely textual scenes joined by a thin black thread, the only colour in the book. It contains three unpublished critical essays.

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.
