Through archival materials, interview excerpts, and newly-realized photos, Beeckman assembles a composite portrait of the various elements that gravitate around the life of a football team, where players and fans play the leading roles. As is usually the case in his practice, photography is not enough on its own, so there are texts and graphic elements that recur to render a layered vision of the subject he’s portraying. The result is a kind of vernacular archaeology, made up of decomposable fragments that overlap in a visual din echoing the background buzz that covers the stadiums.

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.
