Museo per l’Immaginazione Preventiva – EDITORIALE is the show-cum-manifesto which reopened MACRO and introduced the curatorial work of the new artistic director Luca Lo Pinto. Through the works on display, featured with a view to anticipating the themes to be developed over a three-year programme, the exhibition also opened up a broader reflection on the identity of the contemporary museum institution, inviting visitors to let themselves be guided by the artists’ visions and the questions they pose. The publication Editorial brings together the voices of ten of the most important contemporary Italian writers, who transformed their visit to the show into a narrative, imagining further dialogues with the works displayed. The book, deliberately bereft of imagery, reflects on the exhibition exclusively through the use of the word.

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.
