Specifications
Prototype, unique copy

I am the prince who reigns in joy, by sharing and in mutual help, in spite of the obstacles of daily life. My throne is on an oil field, my people do not have access to it, and my kingdom is on untapped farmland. I hope that our children will cultivate all our fields and share the crops at night under the trees and the sunlight. I am the queen mother hen who was plucked by my princes and princesses. I am the child, happy and funny, surrounded by adults haunted by their glorious past and concerned about their future, while I take advantage of the present.

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.
